Local wins WAAAM raffle:
1969 Chevy Custom Stepside
Hood River local Brett
Monson won the Western
Antique Aeroplane &
Automobile Museums’ 1969
Chevy Custom Stepside
Raffle Truck during the
WAAAM Traffic Jam Car
Show on July 10.
Monson was not present at
the time of the drawing, but
as soon as he found out, he
was quick to arrive and claim
his prize after a short crash
course on the ins and outs of
old automobiles, said a press
release.
A self-proclaimed guy-
who-never-wins-anything,
Monson enjoys the living
history nature of WAAAM
and is excited to be taking a
part of it home with him.
“WAAAM still has a long
way to go before fundraising
for our building expansion
is complete but this raffle
helped us raise just over
$22,000,” said Museum
Assistant Director Stephanie
Hatch.
The 1969 Chevy Custom
Stepside Raffle Truck was
donated to the museum
with the intent to be sold or
raffled to help with expand-
ing the museum’s facility to
further its existing educa-
tional opportunities and
become an even better asset
to the region.
The museum is located
on the Hood River Airport at
1600 Air Museum Road. For
more information, visit www.
waaamuseum.org.
WAAAM Traffic Jam
Western Antique Aeroplane & Automobile Museum, Hood River, held its Ninth
Annual Traffic Jam fundraising event July 10. Organizers reported that the show went
well, with a good “middle-of-the-road turnout,” which left them pleasantly surprised
— organizers weren’t sure the event would happen this year, given fluctuating COVID
restrictions, until about a month prior. Activities during the WAAAM Traffic Jam include
both Automobile and Aircraft Restoration Shop tours, engine demonstrations and
WAAAM automobile rides.

GLENWOOD NEWS
Rodeo round-up: Local students compete
■ By Mary Pierce
Rodeo is still a big deal
here in Glenwood. Emma
Patterson, daughter of Shane
and Billie, just returned
from competing in the Silver
State International Rodeo
in Winnemucca, Nev. While
she didn’t place in her
events, the experience was
priceless and she is look-
ing forward to the start of
the 2021-2022 Junior High
School Rodeo season this
fall. Emma, we are all very
proud of you for qualifying
for that rodeo and represent-
ing your rodeo team, family,
and Glenwood community
down there.
As Emma returns home,
Joslyn Arnold, daughter of
Casey and Bo, has head-
ed east to compete in the
National
High School
Rodeo Finals
in Lincoln,
Neb., taking
place July
18-24. Joslyn
will have
Mary Pierce
several other
members of the Goldendale
High School Rodeo Team
there competing, too,
including Blake Masden, for-
mer Glenwood kid and son
of Lacey Masden and Colby
Masden, and grandson of
Kelly and Bill Henderson.
We’ll all be keeping track of
events and cheering them on
from this far distance. You
can go to www.nhsra.com/
events/nhsfr-2021 to check
on daily results and we hope
the parents will all post daily
updates. What an exciting
time for all those cowgirls
and cowboys. Good luck,
Joslyn and Blake, and have a
wonderful time there.
Another young cowboy
competing there is not from
Glenwood, but has deep
roots here. Shane Scott,
son of Amy and Shawn
Roggenkamp and Trevor
and Courtney Scott, had an
amazing high school rodeo
season as a member on an
Oregon team. Shane, who
is the grandson of Oop and
Diane Burgin and Marilyn
and Mike Scott, recently
won the Oregon State High
School Rodeo bullriding
championship. He also was
chosen as rookie of the year
and was the recipient of
the Todd Stoops Memorial
Bullriding Buckle.
Courtney tells us Shane
worked throughout last fall
and this spring to qualify
for the Oregon State Finals,
where only the top 20 in
each event are allowed to
showcase their skills. The
bulls were tough at the State
Finals, but Shane rode all but
one of his bulls to take first
place in State and qualify for
the National High School
Rodeo Finals. He finished
fourth in saddle bronc riding
so will also compete in that
event. What an amazing
year. We’ll be cheering you
on from here in Glenwood,
Shane, and wish you the best
of luck in Lincoln.
Not everything here
is about rodeo. We are
proud to share the news
that Andrew McFall, son of
Sara and Adam, has once
again earned a place on the
President’s List at Neumont
College of Computer Science
in Salt Lake City, Utah. To be
named to this list, a student
must have achieved a grade
point average of 3.7 to 4.0 for
the quarter. We here at home
continue to be so proud of
you, Andy. Congratulations.
The Glenwood Grange
is in the process of trans-
ferring ownership of the
beautiful, historic Mt. Adams
Cemetery to the Glenwood
Cemetery District. A public
meeting will be held at the
WKO-High Cascade Mills
