  • Stampede School Vocabulary Terms Chuckwagon Racing
    Stampede School Vocabulary Terms Chuckwagon Racing Barrel: Two barrels distinguish each figure-eight pattern. Initially, actual wooden barrels were used; now they are manufactured from a flexible plastic that can be molded and reshaped. Barrel Peg: The tent peg situated at the left side of the wagon, closest to the barrel at the race’s start. Barrel Peg Man: The outrider who has the job of throwing in the barrel peg. Canvas or Tarp: The material covering the bows on the box of the wagon. The canvas carries the name of the wagon’s driver and the sponsor. Chalk Line: Temporary chalk lines drawn in the infield dirt to delineate wagon lines. Chuckbox: A pantry-like box built at the back of a range “chuck wagon.” It held all what the camp cook would need to feed the working cowboys, including cast-iron kettles, Dutch ovens, food, cutlery, and the coffee pot. Day Money: The prize money awarded to the outfit with the fastest time for one evening’s races. Draw Pin: The pin holding the wagon pole to the wagon. Four Up: Four horses. Leader: One of the front pair of the four-horse team. Lines: Long leather straps connected to the horse’s bridle by dividing leather straps (crosschecks). The lines are the primary tool the Chuckwagon drivers use to control their horses. Long Barrel: Barrel 1. It is the inside starting barrel position. On the long barrel, the distance between the two barrels making up the figure-eight turn is greatest. Off-barrel Peg: The tent peg situated on the right side of the wagon, farthest from the barrel at the race’s start.

  • The Following Event Descriptions Are Presented for Your Edification and Clarification on What Is Being Represented and Celebrated in Bronze for Our Champions
    The following event descriptions are presented for your edification and clarification on what is being represented and celebrated in bronze for our champions. RODEO: Saddle Bronc Riding Saddle Bronc has been a part of the Calgary Stampede since 1912. Style, grace and rhythm define rodeo’s “classic” event. Saddle Bronc riding is a true test of balance. It has been compared to competing on a balance beam, except the “apparatus” in rodeo is a bucking bronc. A saddle bronc rider uses a rein attached to the horse’s halter to help maintain his seat and balance. The length of rein a rider takes will vary on the bucking style of the horse he is riding – too short a rein and the cowboy can get pulled down over the horse’s head. Of a possible 100 points, half of the points are awarded to the cowboy for his ride and spurring action. The other half of the points come from how the bronc bucks and its athletic ability. The spurring motion begins with the cowboy’s feet over the points of the bronc’s shoulders and as the horse bucks, the rider draws his feet back to the “cantle’, or back of the saddle in an arc, then he snaps his feet back to the horse’s shoulders just before the animal’s front feet hit the ground again. Bareback Riding Bareback has also been a part of the Stampede since 1912. In this event, the cowboy holds onto a leather rigging with a snug custom fit handhold that is cinched with a single girth around the horse – during a particularly exciting bareback ride, a rider can feel as if he’s being pulled through a tornado.

  • Crude Optimism Romanticizing Alberta’S Oil Frontier at the Calgary Stampede Kimberly Skye Richards
    Crude Optimism Romanticizing Alberta’s Oil Frontier at the Calgary Stampede Kimberly Skye Richards An immaculate young woman regally waves at a sea of enthusiastic fans. Perched on her head is a white cowboy hat embellished with a tiara that has “Calgary Stampede Queen” written on it in rhinestones. She is a vision of “westernness” in cowboy boots, a buckskin skirt and jacket, and turquoise jewels. Her express purpose this hot July afternoon is to welcome the 115,000 folks attending the “Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth,” the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede. She is a “welcome figure,”1 like those white-cowboy-hat-wearing individuals in the Calgary air- port who stand in the arrivants’ path and greet travelers. These performances of western hospi- tality amount to a performance of power: the assertion of settler rights to land.2 They are just 1. I borrow this term from Stó:lō scholar Dylan Robinson’s essay “Welcoming Sovereignty,” which examines Indigenous sovereignty and gestures of welcome that take place in spaces of transit and gathering (2016:24). 2. In using the term “settler” to describe non-Indigenous people living in western Canada, I am referring to the idea within settler colonial studies that being a settler is not an identity, but a structural position and experience of power and privilege. Settlers settle into land appropriated by imperial nations and create independent homelands for themselves. They are defined by conquest; they are “founders of political orders and carry their sovereignty TDR: The Drama Review 63:2 (T242) Summer 2019. ©2019 138 New York University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/dram_a_00839 by guest on 26 September 2021 Student Essay Contest Winner Kimberly Skye Richards is a PhD Candidate in Performance Studies at the University of California-Berkeley.
