There’s Nothing Rougher Than the Rough Stock Rodeo

The Sedgewick Agricultural Society pulled off another Rough Stock Rodeo over the weekend. The event started off with a pancake breakfast and included a trade show and kids tractor pull before the big boys took to the arena at 3pm.

The rodeo is one of the biggest annual summer events in the area and the organizers seem to have it down to a science.  Hundreds of entertained individuals came out for the show and none were disappointed.  Congratulations to the Ag Society for hosting another terrific event in the Town of Sedgewick!

Looks pretty rough!

 

and a little rougher!

 

This hombre seems to be the roughest!

The Clans Gathered, and had a Blast!

The first annual Gathering of the Clans Festival brought to you by the local Flagstaff Scottish Club turned out to be a great addition to Sedgewick’s summer scene.  Hundreds of attendees were able to browse the many vendors, watch the Highland Games and listen to some great music and other entertainment throughout the day.  It was truly a day where if you weren’t Scottish, you sure wanted to be!

The organizers were so pleased with the response, they vow to have another!  Special thanks to the folks that brought a taste of Scotland to Sedgewick!

9th Annual Movie in the Park Big Success!

The 9th Annual Movie in the Park hosted this year in Sedgewick turned out to be a big success once again.  Hundreds of families turned out for a showing of Disney’s The Lion King on a perfect calm night last Tuesday.  Festivities started at 5:30pm and went through most of the evening with great food, bouncy houses and of course a dunk tank with some of your favorite local heroes (or villians?) getting a taste of frigid water thanks to the many accurate arms in Sedgewick!

Thanks to Parents for Fun in Flagstaff, the many volunteers and Sedgewick Town staff who helped pull another great event together.

Chickens too!

 

Petting zoos are the best!
