The rodeo each day, four parades, three pancake breakfasts, concerts, and other activities make ten days in July each year the highlight of festivities in Cheyenne. It is made possible because of the volunteerism of hundreds of people. It goes to show what can be accomplished when people work together toward a common goal.
It was another new experience for me last night. I joined nearly 400 other people in attendance at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Hall of Fame Banquet. I extend my congratulations to all of the new inductees, but I especially want to acknowledge Colonel Rod Hottle. He was the General Chairman of CFD in 2010. That was the year of my first experience with Cheyenne Frontier Days after moving to Cheyenne in late 2009. Thank you Rod for your service to the Cheyenne community in all of your volunteer endeavors with CFD as well as your work with United Way. Thank you also for your service to our country through your military career.

The evening began with a "Cowboy Prayer."
