Decorah, IA This Fourth of July weekend offered a journey back in time at Decorah s C-5 Arena. Throughout the wind-blown weekend, the expansive venue was thick with cowboys and cowgirls. The surrounding pastures were dotted with campers, horse trailers and horses. Tarynne Carlson runs the arena. We were really excited to have our first Little Britches Rodeo here at our facility in Decorah, Carlson said as she stood beside the busy food concession adjacent to the barrel racing arena. Our kids are really involved in the youth rodeo in Wisconsin and we were happy to give the opportunity for the kids around the area to come and compete here at our facility.
HAVRE, Mont. (NMB) – The annual North Central Everything Antique Show will make its return next month after being canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic.
The show will take place from June 4-6 at the Great Northern Fairgrounds, and organizer Mark Weston says there will be plenty of antiques, including tractors and classic cars.
“We’re having a Volkswagen reunion. We’ve got bugs coming and there’s Volkswagen vans and rabbits and there should be a Vagabond there. Dune buggies are welcome and even the Volkswagen Thing, we’re supposed to have one of those there.”
Demonstrations scheduled during the show include wheat threshing, a rolling relics parade, and tractor games.

My grandfather was a mover and shaker in the Colorado sugar-beet industry with Great Western Sugar, and he was also a professor of agriculture at Colorado State University. But the agricultural roots my brother and sisters and I most appreciated were the ones associated with trips to the Western Stock Show, Little Britches Rodeo and the Colorado State Fair.
We rarely missed a show together. It was during those fun days we became closely acquainted with the importance of agriculture in Colorado, as we met my grandfather’s coworkers and friends, many ranchers and farmers, my cousin the cowboy and his friends, and the people behind the scenes in the rodeo and livestock handling.
