“Buffalo Proud” Basket Contents
Bill worked hard as a logger in the uranium fields and a pumper in the Salt Creek oil field before moving with his family to a ranch east of Kaycee where he and his wife, Dixie, raised three sons. He always valued education and the importance of students having a variety of educational options.

In his retirement, Bill continued to serve others as a valuable member of the Johnson County Public Library Board of Trustees, a Board member and volunteer for the Hoofprints of the Past Museum, drove the K.A.T.S. bus in Kaycee and served as Chairman of the Johnson County Democratic Party for several terms.
In memory of Bill’s leadership and outstanding community contributions, the William D. McIntyre Scholarship was created. Since the scholarship’s creation, twelve scholarships of $500 each have been
awarded to graduating HS students from Buffalo and Kaycee.
Proceeds from this raffle directly fund the scholarship program and support Johnson County graduating seniors.
Although the scholarship is offered by the Johnson County Democrats, political affiliation of applicants is not identified nor considered in awarding scholarships.
