I’m sure that 26 years ago, my friend Ray Reed had no idea of the impact this event would make on our Western Culture and its community. I’m honored to lend a helping hand and pleased to participate in our Western History, in both the past and it’s future. For years this event has presented the finest Western Entertainers the world has to offer. It is my desire to continue this legacy knowing that the next generation will enjoy all of it benefits. Not only is this Symposium a celebration of the Ameri- can Cowboy and his lifestyle but it is an important learning experience for our young people. Those who we know hold the future of this lifestyle in their hands. I’d like to thank Mr. and Mrs. R.D. and Joan Dale Hubbard for this extraordinary opportunity to help continue this particular part of our western heritage.
