Two uplifting stories out of Cody this week remind residents just how much community pride runs through Big Horn Basin country.
Members of Cody High School’s Class of 1964 have taken a meaningful step to invest in the next generation, building a foundation dedicated to giving back to Cody’s schools. The effort reflects a deep sense of gratitude and connection to the community that shaped them more than six decades ago. By establishing a formal foundation, the class aims to create a lasting legacy that will benefit Cody students for years to come — a testament to the enduring bonds formed right here in Park County.
On the business front, Cody-based WyoDynamics earned a double honor this week, landing a coveted seat in the gBETA startup accelerator program while also taking home a Silicon Couloir award. gBETA, a nationally recognized pre-accelerator, selects only a handful of early-stage companies at a time, making WyoDynamics’ acceptance a notable achievement for Wyoming’s entrepreneurial community. The Silicon Couloir award adds further recognition to the company’s growing profile. Together, these honors put a Cody startup on a broader regional and national map, signaling that innovation is alive and well in northwest Wyoming.
From longtime graduates investing in tomorrow’s classrooms to homegrown entrepreneurs earning well-deserved recognition, Cody is showing — once again — that great things happen when community members pour their energy back into the place they love.
