We were reminded this
spring how far and wide the
reach of Cowboy Up is and
how united we are all in
finding a cure for cancer.
Peggy McMahon and Terri
Pister grew up in McLeod
and have made their homes
in St. Joseph, MO. Over the
past several years they have
recruited several of their
friends from around the St.
Jo area as well as other
family members to come ride
and volunteer at Cowboy Up.
We received a letter from
the “Missouri Girls” asking for
our blessing for an ambitious
fundraising idea they have
for this year to sell 300
T-SHIRTS FOR THE CURE…
ACROSS THE NATION!
The goal is to sell these $20
t-shirts in every state in the
nation. All proceeds will go
to Cowboy Up. The back of
the shirts will read
In Memory of those who
FOUGHT
In Honor of those still
FIGHTING
In Celebration of those who
WON
In Thanksgiving for those
WHO HELP
You can see a photo of the
t-shirt design on our website
and our Facebook page.
These shirts would make
great gifts for your friends
and family.
To purchase your t-shirt email

This year we celebrate our 10th anniversary. It is hard to
believe that 10 years ago Bruce Van Den Eide made those
phone calls and asked his friends to step up and make his
dream, the “Cowboy Up Ride Against Cancer” a reality.
Many times we have thanked Bruce for giving us the opportunity to be part of this great organization,
“The Cowboy Up Ride Against Cancer”!
I so clearly remember that first meeting with the
American Cancer Society; the ACS rep told us that 1 in 8
of us would die from cancer. We sat in that room and
looked around; at that time there were 10 of us.
July 26, 2013 we lost one of our founding members,
Curt Holmlund, to cancer. We lost a true friend that day.
His death only makes us more determined to work to
raise money to help find a cure for this horrible disease.
There are many wonderful people that volunteer and
work hard to make the ride and all of the events leading
up to it such a great success. As committee members and
volunteers have come and gone, many of you have been
with us year after year for the past 9 years. The residence
of McLeod have put their lives on hold for this weekend
and have opened up the streets of McLeod for this event.
Sponsors have come on and been with us every year;
many just mailing a check before being asked. There are
riders that have come every year with cash in hand that
they have collected from family and friends in their neighborhoods. You have donated baked goods to the “Kids
for Cowboy Up bake Sale”, you have supported us by
playing bingo, buying books, and entering the Extreme
Race. Some have shaved their head, donated items to the
silent auction while others have gotten items donated, and
the list goes on and on, Thank you.
I hope you will all join us again this year and make the 10th
Anniversary of the “Cowboy Up Ride Against Cancer” a
year to remember. - Karen Haugen, Committee Member

Horse enthused people. By
now you all have heard
of EHV-1 or Equine Herpes
Virus. This is a common virus
found in horses which generally manifests itself in the
respiratory system.
There are 5 different strains,
and you need to vaccinate 12
to 14 days prior to taking
your horse to any events.
The virus has been reported
in Minnesota and ND. At of
the time of this printing, it
has been contained.
The vaccine is inexpensive
and is effective on 4 of the 5
strains. The vaccine builds
the horse’s immune system,
and is safe to use.
As Cowboy Up is an event
which has many horses,
please be responsible and
have your horse inspected
and vaccinated by a vet for
all equine diseases transferred “horse to horse” well
in advance, and help the
horse community keep all
horses safe and infection
free.
Cowboy Up does not in any
way track whom has or has
not vaccinated. Your cooperation is appreciated.
The Cowboy Up Committee

Whether you came to McLeod to ride a horse,
place bids at live and silent auctions, play bingo,
visit the kids carnival or book sale, came to listen
to some great music at street dances, or just to
take in the atmosphere, all are invited to enjoy in
this fun twist on our Saturday supper.
McLeod is a Cowboy Town - Hitch your horse and enjoy a cold beverage
In honor of our 10th Anniversary we
will be adding a 2nd trail ride on Friday.
Friday’s trail ride is scheduled to leave
at 11am and return at 3pm so everyone
can enjoy the Extreme Races at 6pm.
Pony Races during the Extreme Race were a Hit! Friday’s ride will take a different route
than Saturday’s to show off other areas
of the beautiful Sandhills. This will be a
primitive ride with no lunch or portable
bathrooms.
Saturday we are planning an extended
ride that will leave at 10am and return
around 4pm. At the half way point
there will be lunch available, portable
restrooms, and a marked trail back to
town for those wanting a shorter ride.
All riders must register at the VFW
before participating in either ride.
Registration will be open Thursday 3-6,
Friday 9-8, and Saturday 6-10.
Take a ride around town on the McLeod People Mover
Food, Family, Friends, and FUN!
