Special Events
Special events sponsored by the Foundation raise funds for student opportunity at Eastern Wyoming College, and also serve to provide opportunities for the community to enjoy a night out, or a day on the golf course. The Foundation receives significant local support from businesses and individuals through sponsorships and general support, and we sincerely thank those who have helped make these events so successful.
