What an exciting addition to our community as we continue to celebrate our 75th Anniversary of the Franklin Rodeo. This project has been several years in the making, and we cannot wait to see the finished statue unveiled next month at Jim Warren Park.

The Franklin Rodeo is truly a labor of love, produced entirely by The Rotary Club of Franklin at Noon members and hundreds of dedicated volunteers. The net proceeds from our three-day rodeo are given back to our community through grants from the Franklin Noon Rotary Foundation.

We are grateful to the City of Franklin, TN - Municipal Government, Mayor Ken Moore, our fellow Franklin Noon Rotarian Patrick Baggett for Ward 4 Alderman , and all of our Aldermen for their work and support in helping make this dream a reality.

We are proud to give back to the community that has supported the Franklin Rodeo for 75 years. This statue will be a beautiful tribute to its legacy and the lasting impact it continues to make throughout Williamson County.

A memorial to one of Franklin’s oldest traditions is scheduled for completion this fall.

We hope to see our Franklin Rodeo Fans tonight to support our amazing 4-H community at the Williamson Co Ag Center!!

At the Franklin Rodeo, we’re proud to support Williamson County 4-H and the incredible young people who represent the future of agriculture in our community.

This year, the Williamson County 4-H Livestock Show & Sale is being held separately from the fair, giving our youth an opportunity to truly shine. These hardworking students spend countless hours raising and caring for their animals, learning responsibility, leadership, and the value of hard work along the way.

We hope you’ll join us on Thursday, August 27, at 6:30 p.m. at the Williamson County Ag Expo Park to cheer them on and, if you’re able, support them by purchasing quality locally raised beef, lamb, or goat.

Come help us celebrate and invest in the next generation of Williamson County. We ❤️ our Williamson County 4-H youth!

For 250 years, America has been defined by courage, sacrifice, faith, and freedom.

From the ringing of the Liberty Bell to the waving of Old Glory over hometown parades, family farms, and communities across this great nation, the American story continues to be written by generations who have loved, served, and sacrificed for something greater than themselves.

At the Franklin Rodeo, we are proud to celebrate those values. The rodeo has always been more than a Western tradition. It is a tribute to the spirit of America, honoring our military, first responders, farmers, ranchers, and the hardworking men and women who make this country strong.

As we celebrate America’s 250th birthday, may we remember those who secured our freedom, give thanks for the blessings we enjoy today, and commit ourselves to leaving an even stronger nation for generations to come.

Happy 250th Birthday, America.

God Bless the USA. 🇺🇸
