The premier agricultural celebration in our region, Sagebrush 'n Roses, where an elegant evening awaited guests on January 25, 2025.
Attendees enjoyed a formal dinner, live music, dancing, and a lively silent and live auction—all set against the backdrop of our shared passion for agriculture. Every dollar raised at the gala directly supported agricultural education at Eastern Wyoming College and the students who will shape the future of the industry.
The black-tie and blue-jeans gala was held at the Rendezvous Center at the Goshen County Fairgrounds in Torrington, WY. Doors opened at 4:30 pm for no-host cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, followed by an elegant dinner, live and silent auction, and dancing.
The featured band that year was legendary recording artists, Ivory. Regarded as a true supergroup with a lineup featuring the top performers from many of the Midwest’s best bands, Ivory toured extensively as a full-time entity for over 13 years from 1975 through 1988. The 2025 lineup of Ivory, featuring all original members, performed a select number of concerts each year to raise money for special events and charitable organizations.

The proceeds from the event funded scholarships and supported our competitive teams to represent Eastern Wyoming College and the Lancer brand across the nation.
