CHEYENNE – Wyoming retailers interested in selling Powerball and Mega Millions® tickets are invited to attend one of the nine workshops being held over the next two weeks.
The Wyoming Lottery Corp. will hold workshops in Evanston on April 22, Jackson on April 23, Riverton on April 24, two in Cheyenne on April 25, Gillette on April 28, Sheridan on April 29 and two in Casper on April 30. The lottery is working on finalizing dates for Rock Springs and Cody. Further details about the workshops can be found at wyolotto.com.
Retailers will learn about the lottery and gain a better understanding of the retailer application and selection process. The workshops will also include a facilitated discussion to seek retailers’ feedback on the application and contract.
“Obtaining input from the retailers is a priority for the lottery,” said Jon Clontz, Wyoming Lottery's CEO. “We need to make sure that the process is equitable for the majority of retailers, because the lottery will not be successful unless retailers are successful.”
Clontz explained that the lottery would take retailers’ feedback into consideration when solidifying the application and contract. Once finalized, the application and contract will be presented to the lottery’s board of directors during a public meeting. The board’s approval will open the application process and launch efforts to recruit retailers.
