West Birch Street Welcome home to Glenrock, Wyoming. Big enough to enjoy. Small enough to care. History runs
deeper than the multitude of historic trail ruts across the country near
Glenrock. Glenrock’s
greatest asset is its uniqueness as a place to live and raise a family in
harmony with nature; it is a place to grow; it is a place to easily make
life-long friendships. Within
minutes of any doorstep, one can enjoy a multitude of some of the most
beautiful country and mountain scenery to be found.
The countryside maintains the primitive, relatively untouched appeal
which is seldom experienced in today’s rushing world.
Filled with the simple and uncontaminated joys of nature, it is the
land upon which dreams are built, challenges met and goals realized. The total
product of applying the low tax incentives, the availability and
accessibility of land, a friendly, progressive community and easy and
un-congested recreational facilities make Glenrock an ideal location to
invest and expand. One of
Wyoming’s most sought after and treasured wealth lies in its abundance of
wildlife. This plentiful
habitat of fowl, fish and game has attracted outdoors men from all parts of
the globe. To the west and
south, the majestic mountains fling themselves skyward in defiance of the
plains which spawned them eons ago. The
great plains of Wyoming stretch eastward, their vastness a reminder that
this is the West that was, still preserved in the condition as first seen by
explorers and pioneers who settled on the windswept prairies. Glenrock is
situated roughly at the confluence of the North Platte River and Deer Creek.
The Platte is becoming a fine recreational area for hunting and
fishing. And Glenrock’s
peripheral area and outlying lands are respected for enjoying some of the
finest antelope and deer hunting in the entire west.
Stream fishing is also available in the northern end of the Laramie
Mountains just six miles south of town.
Casper Mountain, located 25 miles west, offers fine winter skiing and
snowmobiling as well as being a popular summer recreational area.
Social, religious, fraternal and educational activities are available
along with a full slate of recreational programs ranging from golf, physical
fitness and health centers to baseball, basketball and tennis. Highly-acclaimed
educational facilities in Glenrock have demonstrated a considerable degree
of inventiveness in the design of buildings and implementation of programs,
geared to the specific needs of individual students. To educate
Glenrock’s pupils, the district maintains four local schools and two
rural, one-teacher schools. All
four schools are modern with excellent facilities such as swimming pools,
auditoriums and a track and activities complex.
Although the school offers a full slate of social and athletic events
for both men and women the emphasis is on the mastery of basic fundamentals. The Glenrock
Diagnostic and Treatment Center offers the citizens of Glenrock and western
Converse County a total health care center.
Housed in a multi-million dollar facility, the Glenrock clinic
provides doctors, dentists, optometrist and chiropractors in addition to
full lab and emergency care facilities. It is of little
wonder, when viewing the total picture, why Glenrock boasts of being...the
best of both worlds.
