Winner! Thouvenel chases down answers in Cat and Mauser game

Bob Thouvenel

The Dalles, Ore., April 9, 2024 — Track coach Bob Thouvenel is this week’s CCCNews local trivia winner with a score of three out of three on identifying locations of former Mauser Lumber Co. sites here in TD.

Thouvenel kicked hard at the end, hitting the finish line with just one other who submitted their answer by T-Mobile.

New phone, who dis? Lol.

It’s all good; my dear wife, Peggy, gave T-Mobile heads and Thouvenel tales.

You had the lucky penny, Bob.

We’ve got a cash prize of $25 waiting for you at the office! Daddy can buy a new pair of running shoes… er, partially pay for half of one. Inflation.

Thank you John Foley for providing us with photos and information.
