The Watonga Masonic Lodge is hosting its Spring Golf Tournament this Saturday, May 22 at the Roman Nose State Park Golf Course. The four-man scramble event will tee off at 9 a.m.

Geary athletes, parents, family, friends and coaches gathered Thursday evening in the Field House to celebrate another year of Geary Bison sports – a season disrupted by a global pandemic and, consequently, one of the strangest and most challenging of all-time.

Geary residents took advantage of the beautiful weather Saturday for a day of rodeo, yard sales, and special events throughout the town. The annual Jesse Chisholm Day commemorates the famous scout and pioneer, the namesake of the Chisholm Trail, whose grave is just a few miles from Geary.

Watonga High School student Kerby Easter has been named one of the students of the year for 2020- 2021 at the Chisholm Trail Technology Center. Easter, a Watonga High School student involved in the CTTC welding program, won the honors for the second quarter of the year.

Watonga Eagles High School golfer, sophomore Natalie Walker braved the cold and wind on April 20th to take first as an Individual Qualifier for Regionals. Walker is the sole golfer this season for Watonga High School. Coached by Kirk Graham, Natalie has placed in the top ten of every tournament she has competed in this season; tying for second place in two. Regionals are held Tuesday, April 27th at Turkey Creek Golf Course in Hennessey. If Walker places in the top six of individual competitors she will advance to the State Tournament May 5th and 6th.
