Our young Glenwood cowgirls, Joslyn Arnold and Peyton Sanchey, had a great time at the National Pro Rodeo (NPRA) Finals in Salem last weekend. While the Finals didn’t go as well for Peyton in Barrel Racing as she had hoped, qualifying for the Finals and finishing 9th overall for the year is really something to be proud of.

Here’s an honor for a Glenwood High School senior, Jayla Avila, that needs to take top billing in today’s column. Jayla has been a standout player on the Trout Lake/Glenwood girls basketball team.

There’s not a lot of news to share this week. Everyone seems to be quite busy getting back into the school routine, I think. So, once again, most of the Glenwood news this week involves cowgirls and cowboys.

Klickitat County Fair & Rodeo runs August 14 - 18, celebrating 80 years of age, Skamania County Fair and Timber Carnival runs August 14 - 17, and Wasco County Fair and Rodeo is set for August 15 -18, and kicks off with a day of free admission for families.

One of my favorite people to write about in this column, Shane Scott, continues to show what a talented young cowboy he is.
