To the editor:
The Mid-Western Rodeo
Association would like to thank
everyone who helped to make
the rodeo a success. Many
people contributed in different
ways, and spent many hours
working in preparation and
during the rodeo. It would be
impossible to name them all.
The painters put on sixteen
gallons of paint to freshen up
the ring and chutes. The
portable seats were handled by
eager workers. The gates were
well staffed by the Exeter
Agricultural Society. Members
of the Service clubs did a
wonderful job in the booths.
A special thanks goes to the
Exeter Times-Advocate for its
cooperation in publicizing the
rodeo. Bill Batten and Ross
Haugh greatly assisted in many
ways.
A financial report is not yet
available, but it looks as if a
moderate profit will be realized.
This profit will be used in several
ways. The new bleachers, costing
$1500, will be paid for. The
Rodeo Association intends to
pay the repair bill for the
grandstand as the funds are
available.
A minor hockey team will
have sweaters and socks
provided at a cost of $200. A
race will be sponsored at the
pony races to be held Sept. 22.
The contributions of all the
participants of "Frontier Town"
is greatly appreciated, We hope
to enlarge this part next year.
A few interesting facts come
from the men on the gates: over
850 cars were parked; the
maximum number of people in
one vehicle were 6 adults and 8
children; one baby bonus cheque
was cashed; an English pound
note was offered; 6 people were
caught hiding in a -camper trailer;
and a very agitated lady was
seeking to find a priest.
Bill Brady of C.F.P.L. Radio
again did an excellent job in
adding to the entertainment for
the day. The cooperation of
C.F.P.L. Radio made his
presence possible.
Any outstanding accounts
against the Rodeo Association
should be forwarded to Mr. Ray
Murley for payment.
The board of directors would
appreciate any comments from
anyone which would help to
improve the show next year.
One lady from St. Thomas sent a
letter of congratulations for a
good rodeo.
One again, a great big "Thank
You" to every person who
helped in any way to make the
Fifth Annual Mid-Western
Rodeo such a success.
Sincerely,
The Board of Directors,
and it is most fitting that the
people of the County see fit to
honor him with a farewell
party."
