TEV KELLY
WyO Director
I am a 4th generation Wyomingite of the Bighorn basin with an absolute love of this area. I am a father of two beautiful young kids and husband to a wonderful wife that I spend much of the year outdoors with. I started guiding hunters back in 2010 but after a few years of taking paid hunters I decided to switch to a volunteer guide for disabled hunters instead. Soon after I started Wyoming Dream Hunts, A 501C3 organization, so that I could provide more hunting opportunities to more kids. I take 6-10 kids on a free guided hunt each year in Wyoming. Me and my wife are directors of Charles Campbell Childrens camp. The camp is in Red Lodge Montana and is a free camp for kids with physical disabilities. As well as helping run that camp I am the volunteer caretaker for the camp that is a forrest service leased camp. I oversee rental and maintenance for 24 buildings and the grounds.
