Wyoming's youth hunting
championships crowned
winners May 30 in Upton but
more importantly, according
to organizers from Wyoming
Game and Fish, nearly 50
young hunters from across the
Cowboy State, South Dakota
and Nebraska had a fun time
practicing their hunting skills.
Officially called the
Wyoming Youth Hunter
Challenge, the National Rifle
Association-sponsored event
has been held at the Upton
Gun Club since its beginning in
2008. Youngsters 18 and under
who have passed hunter educa-
tion have the opportunity to
show their skills in shotgun, .22
rifle, muzzleloader and archery
marksmanship, wildlife iden-
tification, orienteering and
hunter safety judgments.
. Taking top three honors in
the Senior Division (age 15-18)
were Doug Williams, Colton
Buckley anti'Andrew McMillan
a trio of young hunters from
Upton.
In the Junior Division (14
and under) the top hunters were
Riley Coburn of Upton, Garrett
Steele of Wright and Brylee
O'Rouke of Gillette.
"It is really a fun day having
your hunting skills tested," said
Coburn, who also received the
Sign up for Swimming Lessons at Kozisek Aquatic
Center during business hours throughout the summer.
Lessons cost $20.00 which includes one free day pass for open swim. (additional sessions - $15.00)

event's Sportsmanship Award
"It isn't easy by any means, but
being challenged is a lot of the
fun and so is meeting the other
contestants."
Next year's challenge will
be held June 4 at the Upton.
Gun Club
"As in past years, it was
just a great bunch of young
hunters," said Rick Rothleutneq
challenge director. "Many of
the kids were deserving of the
sportsmanship award. That
makes it all worthwhile for the
adults conducting the event.
He encourages hunters
across the state to recruit
youngsters to the 2016 chal-
lenge.
Competing in a state chal-
lenge makes all young hunters
eligible to compete in the
NRA's International challenge,
which will be held July 26 -31 in
Raton, New Mexico.
For the third year, Wyoming
will be represented by a team
of around 10 young hunters
at the International. The event
requires a $600 registration
from each youngster and coach.
Anyone who would like
to help the Wyoming team
compete in the International is
encouraged to send donations
to: Upton Gun Club, P.O. Box
532, Upton, WY 82730.

CEI
is 100 meters shorter than the
Derby, and the field is limited
to 14 horses, though only eight
horses actually ran this year.
Not surprisingly, the
weather on race day could
have been better. Like what
we have experienced here in
Wyoming over the past several
weeks, the small field of horses
had to compete in a torrential
downpour. Given the condi-
tions, it was probably a good
thing that the field was sub-
stantially smaller for this race
as otherwise the sloppy track
could have been a little scary
for those involved. ,
Apparently though,
according to Horse Racing
Nation as well as SB Nation,
American Pharoah perhaps
used the sloppy track condi-
tions to his advantage, given
that he had seen the most
success of all of the horses
running in this type of envi-
ronment. And run he did. He
broke ahead of the pack early
and cruised to an easy seven
length victory in 1:58.46.
With two of the three races
under his cinch, American
Pharoah set his eyes of the
most difficult run of them all,
the Belmont Stakes. Dubbed
"The Test of the Champion"
the Belmont takes place the
third Saturday following the
Preakness which was Saturday,
June 6 this year at Belmont
Park in Elmont, NY. The
pivotal race is one and one-half
miles long and 12 horses were
looking to rip the Crown out
from under American Pharoah.
In the past 37 years, 13
horses have entered Belmont
hoping to win the Crown, but
it wouldn't be until this year
that American Pharoah would
make it happen, finishing first
with a time of 2:26.65. With the
win, the 37 year Triple Crown
drought had ended and it ended
with flair. After running three
races in five and a half weeks,
American Pharoah's Belmont
time was the second-fastest
of all Triple Crown winners.
The winner that holds that
claim to fame is Secretariat,
who in 1973 actually set .the
record for the Derby (1:59.4),
the Preakness (1:53) and the
Belmont (2:24) and continues
to hold those today.
Watching American
Pharoah, and all of his com-
petition for that matter, was
a true joy for me this. year.
The beauty and power of these
superb athletes is amazing,
and you know that the reason
these horses run like they do
is because 'they love it. They
were born to run, and they
train to win. It's pretty cool to
think that it isn't just human
beings who possess a competi-.
tive spirit.
American Pharoah earned
his place in history, and I'm
looking forward to seeing who
will make a run for the Crown
next year. >
