From The Chairman Larry Goodno.....
When the 101 Wild West Rodeo
began 50 years ago the founders’ goal was to create an event
that would bring area residents together to enjoy a true rodeo
experience.
The passing of fifty years has
seen a few changes to our area. But our 101 Wild West Rodeo is
still thriving despite these changes. This is due to the careful
guidance and dedicated effort given by rodeo foundation
volunteers. Each deserves our thanks.
Thanks also goes to the community support we’ve generously
received from businesses — some of which have been supporting
this event since the beginning — through the sponsorship of
Chute Heaven seats and box seats, advertising, adding money for
event purses, and, of course, through countless donations of
goods and services.
But you, our rodeo fans, are the reason why the cowboys and
cowgirls drive hundreds of miles to compete and area volunteers
donate thousands and thousands of man-hours in labor and a small
fortune in materials. Producing a memorable athletic event that
keeps you coming back for more is the reason why we’re here.
Without the support of the communities and businesses and,
especially, you we could not be celebrating the 101 Wild West
Rodeo’s golden anniversary. Everyone on the 101 Rodeo Foundation
truly appreciates all the support that is so generously given.
We feel that we have a special 50th Anniversary event planned
for all. So, let’s sit back and enjoy a real Wild West time!
I hope you enjoy our brand new Web site. It is packed with
history and photographs from the past 50 years.
With gratitude,
Larry Goodno, President
101 Rodeo Foundation
