Humble Pie and Town Rivalries in Eden Valley Colfax Game
A reminiscence of Eden Valley residents jealous of Colfax amenities and town life contrasts. The Lion's Club staged a slapstick charity game between Colfax and Auburn Recreation District players on a ramshackle Constable William’s pasture field, featuring stump bases and cow pies, revealing turf pride and playful antics. Ken Claxton and Ed Marson anchored ARC and town teams as the wild pitch and tricky field conditions shaped the humorous contest.
