If you're looking for a good field trip opportunity, the Wyoming Outdoor Expo is registering classes of all grades now. The Expo is held at the Casper Events Center and is open to pre-registered school groups on Thursday, May 9 and Friday, May 10. All classes planning to attend must register by April 1 so that we can create a customized rotation schedule based on teacher preferences. Register now online. Travel grants are available.

Some of the activities students can take part in are:
 
  • various shooting sports (archery, air rifle, shotgun)
  • fish biology and identification 
  • fish life cycle/hatcheries and stocking
