Big Horn Community Recreation & Early Learning Center

Why It Matters

Big Horn is a close-knit Wyoming community that values youth, health, and connection. However, the community faces a growing challenge:

No local indoor recreation facility, impacting youth through senior citizens.
Limited space for Early Childhood programs, which continue to grow.
Harsh climate conditions many months out of the year limit utilization of outdoor recreation facilities.
Lack of a central hub for connection and engagement - outside of our schools.

The Vision

This is more than just a building – it’s a catalyst for health, education, and unity. By combining recreation and education, we will:

Enhance quality of life for all ages.
Support families with state-of-the-art early childhood education spaces.
Give youth a place to be active, build confidence, and develop life skills.
Leave a lasting legacy for generations to come.

Early Learning Center

Our Early Learning Center will provide a safe, nurturing environment for children to grow and thrive. The center will focus on early childhood education, providing children with the skills and foundation needed to succeed in school and beyond. Key features of the center include:

Over 4000 sq ft of purpose built early learning space.
State-of-the-art classrooms designed for early childhood education.
Interactive learning areas that encourage creativity and exploration.
Safe and engaging play areas to foster physical development.
