50 years ago a small group of college students got together and organized a College Rodeo Club and elected me president.  This weekend that college is hosting a 3 day college rodeo in their own arena and competing against other college teams.  They now have a coach and offer college scholarships for rodeo competitors.

They are having a 50 yr reunion during the rodeo so I am making the 500 mile trip to attend.  Not sure how many of the originals are still living as I haven't had contact since then.

Thanks for all your kind wishes.  Got home yesterday evening and it turned out to be about 1200 miles of driving.  Had a great time and got to visit with several of the original members who were there.  Watched the rodeo but that is definitely a young persons sport.  It amazed me at how the sport has grown at the college.  They had something like 600 contestants at the rodeo.  Had a great program where everyone was recognized and was surprised to see that the largest group was members from the 60's.
