As the dust settles on another incredible Old West Trail PRCA Rodeo, the livestock and contract personnel have headed down the road to their next rodeo, the flags have been folded, the banners taken down, and the chute signs carefully stored away until next year.
The Old West Trail PRCA Rodeo Board would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who helped make our 80th Anniversary Celebration such a tremendous success.
To the spectators who filled our bleachers, hillside and parking stalls and cheered on the cowboys and cowgirls, thank you for sharing in this special milestone with us. Your enthusiasm and support are what keep this proud tradition alive.
To our local community who support us, volunteers, and dedicated board members who spent countless hours preparing the grounds, taking tickets at the gates, helping behind the scenes, and doing the many unseen jobs that make a rodeo happen—thank you. Your time, hard work, and commitment are truly appreciated.
To our vendors, thank you for adding to the excitement and creating an even better experience for our fans and visitors.
To our incredible sponsors, thank you for believing in our rodeo year after year. Your generosity allows us to continue bringing professional rodeo to Crawford and preserving a tradition that has been a part of our community for 80 years. Simply put, this PRCA Rodeo would not be possible without your support.
We would also like to extend our deepest gratitude to Jake Tollman, Sharla Dowding, Jim Hutchinson, Crawford Volunteer Fire Department Chief Brian Prosser, and every member of the department who worked together to make it possible for our community to safely celebrate America's 250th Anniversary while helping make the 80th Anniversary of the Old West Trail PRCA Rodeo a truly unforgettable celebration. Your dedication and teamwork helped create memories that will last a lifetime.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who played a part in this year's rodeo. Whether you volunteered, sponsored, competed, worked, attended, or simply cheered from the stands, you are part of the Old West Trail Rodeo family.
We are honored to carry on this proud tradition, and we can't wait to welcome you back as we begin a new chapter together at the 81st Annual Old West Trail PRCA Rodeo.
Until next year…
Thank you, and God bless.
