Tour de Wish Thermopolis

Inspired by the First Wyoming Wish

In 1985, 10-year-old Brian of Gillette wished to have a BMX bike. Brian’s wish was not only the first wish granted by Make-A-Wish Wyoming, but it began a legacy of serving children with critical medical conditions across the state for years to come. 

Inspired by Brian, Make-A-Wish Wyoming is proud to present Tour de Wish, a series of 5k ride, run and walk events hosted in communities across Wyoming. We invite wish supporters to celebrate Brian’s wish and the over 560 wishes that have since been granted to Wyoming children at Tour de Wish Thermopolis on June 16, 2018 beginning at Hot Springs State Park. 

Transforming Lives Together 

Currently, there are 36 Wyoming children facing critical medical conditions across the state whose wishes are in progress, including 17-year-old Ashley from Wheatland. Ashley was diagnosed with hematological disorder in 2016. Her wish is to have a hairless cat. With your support, wishes like Ashley’s and many more will be granted, bringing hope to a Wyoming child when it is most needed.
