Finally!, Yes, I know, it has been some time getting these ready. Please browse through and hopefully enjoy these. With teaching, little prep time and a very busy weekend, this has taken time. Here goes.
First group of photos gives you an idea of the fun everyone experiences at the bed races.
With the centenniaFestivall of the Fruita Stampede approaching in two years, this blogger is collecting photos anyone will loan... dating back to the early days as well as after WWII and following. Please leave them at the Fruita Thrift Shop, open Wednesday through Saturdays after 9 am. Please leave them in an envelope with your name, phone and return address so that I may return them to you within the week. Thank you, anyone who can help with this project.
I missed barrel slack. With the shorter day time light, lighting was very poor even at 7 pm for mutton busting. Earlier roping slack was captured. Results from the rodeo were posted on an earlier blog.
Just type in Rodeo, or final rodeo 2012 at top left hand side of this blog.
