Their Final Note: Wyoming State Fiddlers Support Area Seniors After 70 Years

July 2026

 

After 70 years of bringing music and joy to communities across the Big Horn Basin, the Wyoming State Fiddlers Association has officially disbanded.

 

In a final act of community dedication, the association sold all of its equipment and is generously donating the proceeds to senior centers throughout their former performance areas.

President Jerri Torczon and Vice President Candy Whitt presented a check for $400 to the Powell Senior Center. We appreciate this wonderful donation and thank them for thinking of us.

Appreciating Our Community

June 2026

On Friday, June 26, 2026, my husband and I traveled to Cody to pick up donated food from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Connie Moore had contacted me and said only that we should bring a truck and that the Powell Senior Center's pickup time would be between 5:30 and 6:00 p.m.

 

When we arrived, one end of the city park was blocked off, with two friendly young men staffing the gate. They were pleasant and funny. We pulled forward, and Connie met us with a green sheet listing all the commodities we were receiving — 91 cases in total.

 

Young people brought the cases to our truck and helped me check off each item. It was the most organized and well-managed event I have ever attended. During the whole time that we were being loaded, the group was saying, "Yeah for the Powell Seniors!"

 

The Powell Senior Center appreciates every person who had a hand in this giving project. It makes my heart smile to see young people doing this.

Wyoming Hunger Initiative honors local volunteers who work in the space of food insecurity

First Lady Jennie Gordon’s Wyoming Hunger Initiative in partnership with the Hughes Charitable Foundation hosted its sixth and final regional summit in Northern Wyoming recently to bring folks together who are working in the space of food insecurity and to honor volunteers.

The Wyoming Hunger Initiative was launched in 2019 with two tenants in mind: one, to never reinvent the wheel and two, to be in all twenty-three Wyoming counties.  There are grassroots efforts in every Wyoming County dedicated to reducing hunger and combating food insecurity.

“Through the relationships that have been developed across the state specific to food insecurity, Wyoming Hunger Initiative has identified partners in every community which has resulted in opportunities to network, share resources, and collaborate” says First Lady Jennie Gordon. “Ultimately, this summit will lead northern Wyoming forward together while also producing realistic action items that are already underway.”

The event kicked off with a volunteer recognition celebration where anti-hunger organizations in northern Wyoming nominated a volunteer from their organization to be recognized.  Without the countless volunteers across the county, this work would not be possible.

Carol Johnston, who has been a committed volunteer for the Powell Senior Center’s home delivery meal program for the past 4 years, was honored at this ceremony. “Carol really has a heart for our community members. She takes the time to talk with each person and considers each one of them as a friend. She lets us know who is in greatest need of food or other services. Carol is always one step ahead of us to offer to take on additional routes throughout the week.” says Linda Dalton, Executive Director of the Powell Senior Center.

The Wyoming Hunger Initiative seeks to find and support Wyoming solutions to the challenge of food insecurity, which affects approximately 86,000 residents statewide. Launched in October 2019, Wyoming Hunger Initiative is the official initiative of Wyoming’s First Lady Jennie Gordon and is governed by the Board of Directors of the Wyoming Governor’s Residence Foundation, a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
