What a wonderful day at Cheyenne! The weather was perfect and so was the rodeo. Before the rodeo started, attendees were able to walk around in the old frontier town, look around in shops, as well as explore the Indian Village. Everyone was very excited once the rodeo kicked off, especially those who were first experiencing a rodeo. They were celebrating Military Monday in Cheyenne and they kicked off the rodeo with an amazing tribute to our military. They started off with steer wresting, bareback riding, bull riding, saddle bronc riding, team roping, barrel racing and the very eventful wild horse race to finish off the event!

Once we left Cheyenne, we headed to the Anheuser-Busch Factory in Fort Collins and enjoyed a tour, a delicious dinner, and of course beer! The factory in Fort Collins opened in 1988 and produces many types of the Anheuser-Busch products. After a very eventful day, the attendees headed to Colorado Springs to get a good night’s sleep before the technical session in the morning!
