August 7-8
It was a special treat for me to return to Lauderdale for the summer Ralph Morgan semi-annual PRCA Rodeo. The April Ralph Morgan was a great rodeo, and the August installment did not disappoint. At the rodeo, I had the privilege of carrying the American flag both nights, signing autographs, and interacting with the rodeo sponsors and fans. I enjoyed seeing a great deal of friends that I had made earlier in April again, as well as meeting new rodeo fans that came to Lauderdale to enjoy the weekend rodeo.
Congratulations to the cowboys and cowgirls who won checks at Lauderdale—the August Ralph Morgan PRCA rodeo was the last Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) rodeo in the state of Mississippi during the 2009 rodeo season. The 2009 rodeo season spanned from October 1, 2008- September 26, 2009. Cowboys’ earnings in that time period determine the 2009 Southeastern Circuit qualifiers and the 2009 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo (WNFR) qualifiers—so the Ralph Morgan PRCA rodeo was the last Mississippi PRCA rodeo with a payout that would help contestants aiming to compete at the 2009 WNFR or Circuit Finals.
Thank you to Mr. Ralph Morgan for allowing me to ride at his great rodeo and to the Lauderdale fans who made it a great event!
