Tiffany Manion was born and raised in Cody. She splits her time between working as the Director of the Allen Wyoming Foundation and overseeing operations as Barn Manager at the J Bar 9 Ranch. She holds a BA in English Literature from California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo. She has worked on ranches her whole life, including at a cutting horse operation in Texas, before returning permanently to Cody.
Tiffany has always been passionate about youth organizations that encourage healthy, active lifestyles. While in high school, she was a founding member of Cody CAN Youth, a local nonprofit providing education, health, and recreational services to reduce illicit drug use among youth in Park County. Today, Tiffany acts as an advisor, assisting the youth leadership so they can manage a successful program. Further, she serves in a leadership role for Park County Youth Cycling, a local youth club that provides access to safe gravel cycling and leadership skill development, while sharing the joy of cycling with young people. Finally, she serves as Vice President of That Other Project, which initiates infrastructure development projects to improve local safety and accessibility among pedestrians, cyclists, and horseback riders in and around Cody.
Conserving open space in Park County is important to Tiffany because she is a fourth-generation rancher with a deep appreciation for nature and the outdoors. She knows firsthand how a strong farming and ranching economy is integral to the community, and recognizes how vital open spaces are. She is committed to working with a wide variety of users to keep open spaces a priority for our community.
