HELPING - ONE BALE AT A TIME: Ranchers on the Great Plains are recovering from wildfires that scorched hundreds of thousands of acres of cattle country last month. In the vast plains of western Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas, ranchers have devised a system to make sure the cattle that survived the blaze still have enough to eat. Farmers and ranchers from around the country are donating bales of hay and volunteering to distribute it to ranchers in need. Learn more by reading the article below:

MISS RODEO COLORADO: Later today, judges gathered at the Union Colony Civic Center in downtown Greeley, Colo., will crown the 2018 Miss Rodeo Colorado — an honor bestowed upon a young woman who commits to promoting the sport of rodeo and our western heritage. The final events of this year’s Miss Rodeo Colorado Pageant Finals (the Fashion Show and Coronation) get underway at 4:30pm today, and culminate four days of competition that included the seven young women you see below delivering speeches, displaying horsemanship skills, and being interviewed in different settings. Tickets for this evening’s event are still available using the link below. Finally, while she still has six months of service left under her crown, we’d like to give a big shoutout to the 2017 Miss Rodeo Colorado, Kelsie Winslow, who we were proud to honor with a Powder River Saddle at last year’s Coronation. Thank you for your service, Kelsie. You inspire us with your grace and talent!
