Robin Schamber announces candidacy for Sublette County Commissioner (posted 7/21/2026)
Robin Schamber media release
My name is Robin Schamber, and I am proud to announce my candidacy for Sublette County Commissioner. As a multi-generational Wyoming native and conservative Republican, my campaign is driven by a strong dedication to public service, fiscal responsibility, and safeguarding the values that define Sublette County. I also look forward to embracing new opportunities to welcome our young people back home. I ask for your support because I truly care about our community and the future were shaping together. My candidacy is founded on a simple purpose: to serve the people of Sublette County with honesty, transparency, and a focus on acting in the best interest of the entire county.
I bring decades of experience in education, public service community leadership. When I moved to Sublette County in the early 2000s, I served as the UW/Sublette County Extension 4-H Educator, working with thousands of local youth and their families and helping to establish afterschool programs across the county. My work involved collaborating with local governments, towns, industry, and statewide partners, giving me a deep understanding of the countys needs and opportunities.
Sublette Countys young people and families have shown me, time and time again, what makes this community strong and where we need to be thoughtful as we plan for the future.
I also served two terms on the Sublette County School District 1 Board of Trustees, the Sublette BOCES board, and dedicated a decade to the Wyoming Afterschool Alliance, including serving as its chair. I was appointed by Governor Mead to the Wyoming State Board of Education, where I served from 2016 to 2023. I have a deep understanding of state and local governance, budgeting and finances.
As a conservative Republican, my campaign is rooted in the principles of limited government, fiscal discipline, and protecting individual rights. Sublette County is more than just where I live, it is my home.
County government has the vital role of providing essential services while carefully managing taxpayer dollars. I believe in maintaining the countys financial health, supporting local businesses, and ensuring government operates within its proper role. An important focus for me is safeguarding private property rights and strengthening our relationships with state and federal partners. Our public lands support agriculture, industry, and recreation, and preserving those connections is essential. We must continue to advocate for Sublette County.
I also want to support core industries like oil and gas, ranching, and tourism, while thoughtfully expanding our local economy. We need to protect the industries that built this county and create opportunities for the next generation.
I have advanced degrees in science from the University of Wyoming, and raised two fellow UW graduates, and wonderful young people, right here in Sublette County alongside my husband Greg. My daughter, Brookely, is now a veterinarian. My son, Garett, is a field superintendent for Barnard Construction.
My goal is to help build a future they, and all of our children and grandchildren can see themselves in and come back to.
My campaign will emphasize bringing people together to find practical solutions and making decisions that benefit the entire county. I believe respectful disagreement can exist alongside progress. This is the leadership I will offer as your county commissioner.

Doug Vickrey running for reelection for Sublette County Commissioner (posted 7/15/2026)
Doug Vickrey media release
My commitment as a county commissioner is to make decisions based on the facts, information, and public input presented before the commission. My votes are my own and are guided by the people who believe what is best for Sublette County, not by outside influence or direction from any individual. If re-elected, I will continue to represent this community honorably. I will persist in asking questions, do the research, and vote on issues responsibly. Some "belt tightening" lies ahead. I understand the difference between the "wants and needs" list and I understand the meaning of the word "no."
As a fourth-generation Green River Valley resident who has lived and worked both ends of the county, I know that smooth relationships among our towns and county depend on open dialogue.
MY STORY
Raised in the LaBarge, Marbleton and Big Piney areas and a 1962 graduate of Big Piney High School, I've been a Sublette County rancher since 1966. I spent my high school summers working on oil rigs and hauling supplies to the fields for T&V Company.
I married my high school sweetheart, Lynda, the daughter of long-time Sublette County ranchers, Buss and Mardell Fear, After attending the University of Wyoming and Utah State University, I returned to Sublette County to work for Fear Ranches on the Beaver Creek Unit in Daniel for more than 20 years, raising our son Mike (Debbie) and daughter Nikol (John). We have four grandchildren Jason, Kelsea, Makenna and Maddee and six great-grandchildren: Weston, Hailey, Harper, Wyatt, Kynlee and Henry. In 1985, Lynda and I purchased a portion of the Beaver Creek Ranch, where we still live and work today.
EXPERIENCE THAT SERVES SUBLETTE COUNTY
I was a livestock buyer for Torrington Livestock and a Nebraska feedlot for 10 years, which let me visit and do business with people throughout the Green River Valley earning the trust and respect a commissioner needs.
I've been a member of the Big Piney and Pinedale rodeo clubs, and have fond memories of helping build the present Buss Fear Memorial Arena at the fairgrounds. I joined the Sublette County Sporting Association in Pinedale, where I've served as President and currently serve on that Board.
Three terms as State President of the Wyoming Weed and Pest Council gave me the chance to build my knowledge of government, budgeting, and working with state and federal agencies.
As a five-time representative for the Intermountain Noxious Weed Committee, I lobbied in Washington, D.C. for funding to fight noxious weed invasions across the West.

SCSO seeks info on gunshot into Pinedale residence (posted 7/8/2026)
Sublette County Sheriff's Office
PINEDALE, WYOMING, July 13, 2026 The Sublette County Sheriff's Office (SCSO) is seeking the public's assistance in investigating an incident involving the apparent discharge of a firearm in Pinedale over the weekend.
The Sheriff's Office received a report this morning from a homeowner who discovered a hole in a window that appeared to be consistent with a firearm projectile. Investigators believe the projectile entered the residence after being fired somewhere in the vicinity of Jade Street and Quartz Avenue.
Based on the investigation, the incident is believed to have occurred sometime between the afternoon of Friday, July 10th, and the morning of Monday, July 13th. During that time, a bullet traveled through the window of the residence. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
The Sheriff's Office is asking anyone who may have heard gunfire, observed suspicious activity, or has information that could assist investigators to contact the Sublette County Sheriff's Office.
Anyone with information is encouraged to call the Sublette County Sheriff's Office at 307-367-4378. Information, no matter how minor it may seem, could be valuable to the investigation.
The investigation remains active, and no additional information is being released at this time.
