ABOUT THE DEVELOPER

Homer A. Scott, Jr., Developer of The Powder Horn, has lived in the Sheridan, Wyoming and Northern Rocky Mountain Region most of his life. He spent 15 years working for the Peter Kiewit Company following graduation from college and is now engaged in the banking and hospitality business in Wyoming and Montana.

The Powder Horn is Mr. Scott's realization of a long-time desire to develop a premiere residential golf community located near the beautiful Big Horn Mountains. In the fall of 1993, Mr. Scott and his wife, Janet, were introduced to The Powder Horn and it was love at first sight. Seeing and experiencing the meandering tranquility of Little Goose Creek, along with the hills and high ground that afford such great views of the Big Horn Mountains, the dream began to take on a sense of reality. On October 1st, 1995, the first home site was sold at The Powder Horn, and in June of 1997, The Powder Horn Golf Course opened for play. Two generations of the Scott Family are now involved in the management and operations of The Powder Horn Golf Community.
