This and other fun facts about the City of Wyoming can be found in the Wyoming Historical Commission’s 2023 calendar, which was released earlier this month.
The calendar features 12 photos of the city along with signs from businesses that at onetime were part of the Wyoming community. Along with listing holidays, sprinkled throughout the calendar are special dates related to the city such as when former President Bill Clinton visited Rogers High School (March 13, 1992).
The calendar is available at the Wyoming Library History Room, which is open Tuesday evenings and Saturdays form 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. The calendars are also available at Marge’s Donut Den, 1751 28th St. SW.
The calendars are $10 each with the money raised going back to commission projects.
