Cowpie Open attract 86 duffers

Threatening clouds did not keep 86 duffers from participating in the 20th "anul" Cowpie Open Saturday.

"We were 14 people short of 100," organizer Jim McKinney said. That reduced the amount of money raised for the Encampment/Riverside Fire Department. The Cowpie Open maxes out at 100 people and many years, McKinney has had a waiting list.

Still, the Cowpie Open raised $1,500 for the fire department and the Future Career and Community Leaders of America had a good turnout for their spaghetti dinner Friday night.

Earning first place were Dube Bonner and Jason Barreno, both of Laramie, with a combined score of 79.

In second place was Encampment resident Cole McKinney and Casper resident Wes Keyser, who had a combined score of 77.

Coming in third place with a score of 79 were John Waldron and Mike Romero, both of Rawlins.

Closest to the pin on hole No. 1 was Russ Telander of Cheyenne with 20 feet 4 1/4 inches.

Dan Kraft, of Encampment, had closest to the pin on hole No. 3 with 9'2".

John Waldron had a low score of 32 and Brent Duncan had a low score of 30. Both men are from Rawlins.
