Face masks? What’s a stinkin’ face mask? (Photos courtesy Bob Davies)
Looking spiffy in the short shorts.
The pride of the prairie.
Ready to rumble on the hardwood.
Coupeville’s sports past is out there, waiting to be uncovered.
While there’s no museum dedicated to the exploits of the Wolves, or the many Cow Town athletes who played for city teams, little bits and pieces of history are stuffed into a million attics, basements and photo albums.
The trick is finding them all, and sharing it with new generations.
The photos above come to us from Bob Davies, who father, Howard, played with teams in the late ’20s and early ’30s.
The elder Davies passed away in 1968, when his son was 12, but he, and his compatriots from the early days of Coupeville athletics live on in the photos of the time.
If you have similar photos from any time period, now is the time to do something about them.

If you want to hold on to your items, but would still like to share, snap a pic or scan them and email me at davidsvien@hotmail.com.
We can preserve Coupeville’s athletic history, if we all work together.
