One of my favorite rodeos — the Elizabeth Stampede in Elizabeth, CO — won the Mountain States Circuit title (again) for Rodeo of the Year, this time for the designation of Medium Rodeo of the Year.

Well deserved honor for all the good folks who put that rodeo together. Just from my vantage point of covering it for publication year in and year out since 2003, I can tell you it is a labor of love for all involved.

A group photo that includes award winning 2022 Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo board members, committee members, and a host of other volunteers plus royalty and contract personnel show their pride in celebrating the 35th year since the Elizabeth, CO rodeo officially joined the PRCA. The upper photo has them holding up three fingers with each hand, while the lower photo has them holding up five fingers with each hand to signify 35 years of PRCA rodeo. ~ Image by Lincoln Rogers, 2022

My latest article with photography has been published. It incorporates the USAF Thunderbirds images I have been posting, along with more photos from the Wings Over Warren flying demonstration and Thunderbirds practice, plus interviews with Thunderbirds officers and the Cheyenne Frontier Days general chairman. I have to say, I loved putting this story together.

The world famous USAF Thunderbirds perform an iconic Delta Burst formation and maneuver near the conclusion of the 2022 Wings Over Warren air show at the F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Cheyenne, WY. The air show held in conjunction with the historic Cheyenne Frontier Days was the site of the Thunderbirds’ first public air show in 1953 and they have rarely missed an opportunity to be in the air show since.

I was able to get some one-on-one time with NWSS President and CEO Paul Andrews on the last day of 2022’s 116th year of the NWSS (Sunday January 23). We discussed the challenges the NWSS had to go through in 2022 as well as looking ahead to the future of the historic venue and its on-going billion dollar expansion project. The Fence Post magazine has published and posted the Q&A online.

Paul Andrews, President and CEO of the National Western Stock Show, rides into the Denver Coliseum arena while being announced to the crowd before the start of the championship round of rodeo at the 2022 NWSS. “This year was a must do,” said Andrews about the 2022 NWSS after 2021’s event was canceled due to COVID.
