Cowboy Joe Club News. . .
The golf series takes a break for the Memorial Day weekend, but resmes Saturday, June 4, at the Golf Club at Devils Tower. That event tees off at 1 p.m. Then on Monday, June 6, the tour will return to Worland to finish the previously-scheduled event at the Green Hills Golf Club. Poor weather conditions forced postponement of that tournament which was scheduled for last Saturday.
A reminder to all members, June 30 is the deadline to pay pledges in full. In order to receive parking benefits, tickets ordered for the Nebraska game, and other available benefits, an individual must be in good standing by June 30.
