Ned Winder was involved in many things. Here is a picture of him with famous boxers Gene Fullmer and Spider Webb.

There was a statement in the SL Tribune that said "We immediately sent a WIRE to the National Boxing Association" telling them about the appointments.

That same year (1959) he was elected Sons of the Utah Pioneers-Pioneer Chapter President
He served for many years on the board before becoming President.
He was elected to the 5-man Chamber of Commerce Board
