The Cow & Coyote (photo) in the center of downtown are helping to kick off the announcement of the T-shirt contest.  No, not a wet t-shirt contest, a 'win a t-shirt' contest.  Very different.  From Weds 11/12 to Sun 11/16, go to their Facebook page or Tweet them an answer to the question, "What should the Cow & Coyote put in their emergency kit?"  Winners announced on Monday 11/17.
