Buttercup repeat

Two-year-old Penelope Beasley and her six-year-old brother Max were the winners of the Cheney Free Press annual buttercup contest to see who can be the first boy and girl to bring in a buttercup. The duo are the grandchildren of Cheney-area resident Shelly Springer, and found the buttercups near her home on South Long Road. It’s the second buttercup for Max, who was a winner two years ago, and third for Springer, who brought in another granddaughter, Ashton, with a first buttercup in 2005.
