Please have someone contact me about the rodeo that was held on August 6/11 that
was stopped because of weather. I feel I should get our money back as we were only
there for less that 25 minutes including 10 minutes that we were under the grand stand
because it was raining so hard. It costs us $26.00 – 2 adults and our 2 grandchildren.
You would have to contact someone from the committee as we actually have no control over this kind of stuff, we just report about these upcoming events.
