In mid-December, dignitaries from throughout Sublette County government and operators in the natural gas industry attended the groundbreaking ceremony for the Sand Draw Rescue Center. The center will host a full ambulance crew 24-hours a day, 7-days a week, giving quicker response to emergencies in the nearby booming Jonah and Pinedale Anticline natural gas fields. Industry operators kicked in $900,000 for the new $1.4 million building. Sublette County contributed another $500,000. The county health care district will fully staff the facility which will be completed in early April, 2007. Governor Dave Freudenthal was scheduled to attend the groundbreaking ceremony, but cancelled at the last minute due to a severe winter snow storm which struck Cheyenne and northern Colorado. More |
