Laramie Rivers Conservation District

Sponsored by the Laramie Rivers Conservation District, over 50 exhibitors representing businesses, government, the non-profit sector, and the seasoned home practitioner provided the Albany County community with information on conservation in our homes, businesses, and personal lives.

The Laramie Rivers Conservation Expo was held Saturday, March 8 at the Albany County Fairgrounds.

The Laramie Rivers Conservation District 9th annual Conservation Expo is set for March 8.

“Watershed,” Robert Redford’s new film about the threats to the Colorado River Basin, will be shown at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 8, at the University of Wyoming’s Berry Biodiversity Conservation Center auditorium.

While Laramie is a beautiful community, surrounded by mountains and amazing outdoor playgrounds that many of its citizens enjoy throughout the year, there are also some unsightly parts of our town that could use a little TLC. The old Standard Oil Refinery, which has sat abandoned and neglected for over twenty years near Laramie's West Side Neighborhood, is one of those sites, but thanks to the Laramie Rivers Conservation District it is moving closer to cleanup.
