Howdy-Roo gets cookin’ for Highland Lakes charities

Three of the five Campbell brothers — Steve Campbell (left), Johnny Campbell and Tim Campbell — work their magic during the Howdy-Roo chili cook-off May 4 at Johnson Park in Marble Falls. The brothers call their team 5-C for all five brothers. The other two Campbell brothers, Don and Joe, couldn’t make this year’s Howdy-Roo. Along with the chili, the 5-C squad competed in barbecue, beans and chicken. The event drew hundreds of cooks and tasters from across Texas and the Highland Lakes. Howdy-Roo raised thousands of dollars for local charities and scholarships. Staff photo by Daniel Clifton
