    The money raised will be sent to a smaller nonprofit organization, Pets for Vets, that rescues, trains, and pairs shelter dogs with veterans in need.

    If you were not able to participate in the competition but would like to help deployed Wyoming Troops, Teton Athletic Club has a drop box at the gym for non-perishable items, snacks and Wyoming stuff to send to the troops.
