There are over 20 city-owned recreational facilities or interests on which the board advises yearly. “These include Hogadon Basin Ski Area, the Municipal Golf Course, the Casper Recreation Center, Casper Ice arena, all city pools, parks, and Fort Caspar Museum, just to name a few,” Lopez said. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board comprises nine volunteer citizens who are appointed by the Casper City Council and serve three-year terms. Meetings are at 4:30 p.m. on the second Thursday of every month at various city-owned recreation facilities. Members may generally attend virtually via Microsoft Teams as well. Due to one upcoming term expiration, there will be one vacancy beginning in January 2025. “We invite Casper residents who are interested in serving on this dynamic and diverse committee to submit a letter of interest outlining relevant experience and explaining why they are interested in serving,” said Lopez. Letters should be addressed to: Zulima Lopez, 1800 East K St., Casper, WY 82601. “Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Opening” should be the subject line on the envelope. Interested parties are encouraged to send their application letters prior to Nov. 15, 2024, when the first round of applications will be reviewed. </div></body>
