Encampment K-12 and Saratoga Middle High School hosted holiday recitals last month. 

The Wyoming Wild Sheep Foundation hosted its annual winter meeting at the Saratoga Hot Springs Resort in Saratoga last month.

The two-day event featured a WWSF Board meeting, member meetings, raffles, auctions, dinner and a weather-canceled field tour.

From Skijoring to public meetings and State Championships, 2025 was another great year for the Saratoga Sun covering all things Platte Valley. 

Wyoming better hold on tight. The upcoming election cycle is gearing up to be an interesting one. 

For 138 years, the Saratoga Sun has been the Platte Valley’s newspaper. Publishing for more than a century is a privilege we don’t take lightly, and it comes with a responsibility we hold dear. As we turn the calendar into 2026, it’s easy to be grateful.

Near the end of 2025, Riverside’s Lee Ann Stephenson was welcomed to the Wyoming Community Foundation Board of Directors. In doing so, she succeeded a spot previously held by Encampment’s Irene Archibald.
