The NCOWS Eastern Regional, is now in the books. The Main Match was held on Saturday, October 13th, with an Awards Banquet held afterward at Weliever’s Restaurant in Hagerstown, on Saturday evening. On Sunday the 14th we held the Side Matches.
Will Henry, and the usual suspects, (such as; Peevine and G. W.) put a lot of time and labor in to make this Regional a success. We hope that everyone that attended the Regional had a good time!

Web Site Pictures Several of the pictures on the web site are a few years old by now. Also, we have several people that participate at our events with family members. We have started to get some family portraits to post on the web site. I will be bringing my camera to the June Shoot and Train Robbery. If you are at one of these events and would like a newer picture and/or a family portrait for the web site let me know and we’ll get one taken. Family Photos We have also had three members of the posse add a brief description of the persona they are portraying at NCOWS events. Please view the stories of Ottawa Creek Bill (Bill Proctor), and Steel Horse Bailey (Jeff Bailey). |
