Bureau of Land Management
Established in 1946, the BLM is today the nation's largest land manager. Our roots go back to the years after America’s independence, when the young nation began acquiring additional lands. At first, these lands were used to encourage homesteading and westward migration. The General Land Office was created in 1812 to support this national goal.

Over time, values and attitudes regarding public lands shifted, and President Harry S. Truman, by means of a government reorganization, merged the GLO and another agency, the U.S. Grazing Service, creating the Bureau of Land Management. Learn more about our origins and how the BLM evolved over time in  "Opportunity and Challenge: The Story of the BLM."

We manage 245 million acres of public lands—that’s one in ten acres in the country—and 700 million acres of mineral estate. These public lands and subsurface acres are integral to the lives and livelihoods of communities and families across the country. This is accomplished by 12 main regional offices and headquarter offices in Grand Junction, Colorado and in Washington, DC.

Plaza Diane Community Center for the Arts
Plaza Diane Community Center for the Arts is the result of collaboration among multiple community organizations and citizens who worked with the City of Powell to create a center for arts and culture in the heart of our downtown shopping district.

WYO Hoofbeats, EAL
Wyo Hoofbeats, EAL offers a unique therapeutic modality called Equine Assisted Psychotherapy which is an experiential form of learning where horses are involved in the sessions.  “Experiential” means that the client will be involved in hands-on experiences with the horses designed to reflect things going on in their life.  This process is about providing them the opportunity to experience, explore, problem-solve, discover, be creative, gain insight and experience practical applications of what they are learning in the moment. The process is about “doing” along with the "talking".

Park County Open Lands
Park County Open Lands works to create a legacy of resilient open spaces, wildlife habitat, working lands, and community spaces forever protected by conservation easements for current and future generations across the communities of Park County.
