Big Horn Lions Club Golf Tournament 

The Big Horn Lions Club will be holding a fundraising golf tournament at the Powder Horn on Sunday Sept. 8. 

Registration opens at 8:30 a.m. with tee off at 10 a.m. in a scramble format shotgun start.

Former President Ed Hawkinson and Scholarship Chairman and Tournament MC Dick Sutphin said that so far, 58 corporate sponsors are supporting the event and more sign up daily.

Hawkinson said the club would like to host 14-20 teams playing in the event. Cost is $75 for Powder Horn members and $175 for non-members. The fee includes 18 holes, a cart and lunch. Contests will include five to six payout holes, longest putt or drive, closest to pin and four fundraising holes. 

The tournament will feature paid mulligans and other fun features to help your team along the course. Hawkinson described one feature that will be issued by Sheridan County Sheriff Levi Dominguez with a donation to the Big Horn Lions Club; Mulligan’s String.

Thanks to the generosity of Peak Power Sports, an ATV side-by-side is available to win with a hole in one on Eagle 8, something Hawkinson said is challenging but has been accomplished in the past. The tournament will pay out for first, second, third place and last place or “most honest” team.

The Big Horn Lions Club utilizes all the funds raised for:

• Scholarships for local high school graduates headed to college
• Preschool vision screening for public and private schools in the county 
• Vision services for persons in financial need 
• Funding school programs to send students to national competitions
• Supporting the Wyoming Girls School
• Maintaining the Mt. Hope Cemetery
• Kids Fishing day
• Supporting students during athletic events
