Curt Gowdy State Park Limits Shower Availability in the Visitor Center

CHEYENNE, Wyo. – July 15, 2025 – Due to increasing demand and lower supply, Curt Gowdy State Park will limit the availability of shower facilities in the Visitor Center starting July 18, 2025. The Visitor Center shower facilities will be open on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Wednesday from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. and closed on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Visitors are encouraged to use the open and convenient restroom facilities located around the park.  

"Our staff is working hard to monitor and find solutions for this situation. Please follow our social media pages for important updates. Thank you for your patience and understanding," said Adam McKay, Curt Gowdy State Park superintendent.  

The Visitor Center opened to the public in 2014, thanks to a generous gift from the Wyoming State Legislature and Bass Pro Shops founder John Morris. The building was the first LEED-certified structure within the Wyoming State Parks system. The park hosts over 500,000 visitors annually and offers 50 miles of mountain bike and hiking trails, fishing, paddleboarding, and camping.  

"We hope this is a temporary restriction for our shower facilities at the Visitor Center," said Christina Bird, district manager for Wyoming State Parks. "We appreciate the patience of our visitors and will continue to work on the issue and keep the public updated as we go."   

Wyoming State Parks will share press releases, website updates, and social media announcements. To stay informed about the latest updates, follow Curt Gowdy State Park on social media or visit wyoparks.wyo.gov/curtgowdy for more information.
