Friday night, the stands were packed with people enjoying the show. Montgomery County Mayor Wes Golden surprised Bill Hoy himself with the presentation of a framed rodeo jersey.
Proceeds from the event support Kiwanis children’s programs, including Explorer’s Landing at the Customs House Museum and Cultural Center, and the Reading Rodeo, in which every third-grader in Montgomery County gets a free book.
Saturday night is the final night for the rodeo and it’s sold out, but be sure to look for it next year.
