Looking for memorabilia, photos, and more for the 100th Anniversary Commemorative book...

2022 marks the 100th anniversary of the Dawson Creek Exhibition and Stampede, which first took place in 1922 at the Willowbrook Creek.

To commemorate the occasion, the exhibition executive is making a book celebrating the history of the event, with the hope of including pictures, results, and memorabilia from each year the event took place.

Though quite a lot of information has been gathered, there are a few stretches of time in which the executive has no or little info, including 1939-50, a number of years in the 1970s and 80s, and from 1923-28.

Anyone who may have photos, ribbons, records of anyone who attended or participated in the event, please contact events coordinator Reid Leer at 250-782-6252, or dawsoncreekfair@gmail.com.

Frank Ripley & cowgirl sue would like to wish all the contestants Good Luck & Have Fun at this year’s Exhibition & Stampede!

Our Heavenly Father, we pause at this time, mindful of the many blessings you have bestowed upon us. We ask, Lord, that you will be with us in the arena of life.

We as cowboys do not ask for special favors.

We don’t ask to draw around the chute fighting horse, the steer that won’t lay, or to never break the barrier. We don’t even ask for all daylight runs.

The Cowboy Prayer

We do ask Lord, that you will help us live our lives here on earth as cowboys, in such a manner, that when we make that last inevitable ride, to the country up there, where the grass grows lush, green, and stirrup high, and the water runs cool, clear, and deep, that you’ll take us by the hand and say - “Welcome to Heaven cowboy, your entry fees are paid.”

WATCHING PRO RODEO SADDLE BRONC RIDING To qualify, the rider must have his spurs over the break of the shoulders until the horse completes his first jump out of the chute. He will be disqualified for touching any part of the animal or equipment, for losing a stirrup or for getting bucked off before the end of the eight-second ride.

Each event requires a key component to achieve success and for saddle bronc competition, this component is maintaining a good rhythm. In time with the bronc’s bucking action, the rider spurs from the animal’s neck, using a full swing,

toward the back of the saddle with his toes pointed outwards.

The equipment required by the saddle bronc competitor includes his own CPRA approved saddle, spurs with dull rowels (the revolving disk at the end of each spur), leather chaps and a braided rein.

The length of the rein is crucial as it can mean the difference between staying on the bronc for the full eight seconds, or being tossed off. By adjusting his grip carefully, the cowboy can maintain his balance and, hopefully, prevent himself from being pulled out of the saddle and over the front end of the horse.

BAREBACK RIDING Instead of a saddle, a double-thick leather pad, called a rigging, is cinched on the bronc’s back. No stirrups or reins are used in the event. To qualify, the rider must mark the horse out of the chute by keeping his spurs over the break of the shoulders until the first jump out of the chute is completed.

The bareback rider will be disqualified if he touches the animal or equipment with his free hand or if he is bucked off before the eight-second ride is completed.

No other event in professional rodeo is as physically demanding as bareback riding.

Using only one hand, the cowboy must hold onto the leather handhold of the rigging which is customized to snugly fit to the rider’s grip. The rider tries to spur the horse on each jump, reaching as far forward as he can with his feet and then bringing his ankles up toward the rigging.

It’s the bareback rider’s arm that takes all the stress as it absorbs most of the horse’s bucking power. While his arm endures this incredible tension, his hand must remain intact within the rigging’s handhold for the full eight seconds.

Dawson Creek Mirror’s Fall Fair & Exhibition Feature Feature• 2021

TEAM ROPING Two cowboys, a “header” and a “heeler” work to rope a steer in the shortest time possible. The steer gets a head start before the header leaves the box. The header throws his rope to catch the steer with one of three legal head catches: around the head and one horn, around the neck, or around both horns. If the cowboy fails to give the steer the head start, the team receives a 10-second penalty. Once the header has caught the steer, he wraps the rope around the saddle horn (dallies) and turns left with the steer in tow. The heeler then ropes both hind legs of the steer and dallies his rope. Once the slack has been taken out of both ropes and the contestants are facing each other, the flag drops and time stops. If the heeler only catches one leg, a 5-second penalty is added. If the heeler throws his loop before the header has turned the steer left, that is called a “crossfire” and the run is disqualified.

TIE-DOWN ROPING Truly a team effort, tie down roping demands split-second timing as the cowboy and his horse race against the

clock and other competitors to catch and tie a calf. The calf must cross the scoreline before the rider breaks the barrier (a rope across the chute) or a ten-second penalty is added to his score.

After roping the calf, the cowboy runs down the rope and throws the animal by hand. More time is lost if the calf is already down when the roper reaches the animal because the calf must be up (standing) before the cowboy may throw it down.

Any three legs of the calf must be tied with a piggin’ string. The tie must hold for six seconds or the roper is disqualified.

The horse which works with a calf roper must be able to judge the speed of the calf, be able to stop on cue in a single stride, and then hold the rope taut when the roper runs to his calf. Finding a horse that can be trained to do all this well is a difficult task.

STEER WRESTLING Timing, coordination and strength are essentials for a steer wrestler. The steer is given a headstart and must cross the scoreline before the rider breaks the barrier (a rope) of the starting box. If the rider does break the barrier prematurely, ten-seconds are added to his time.

Dawson Creek Mirror’s Fall Fair & Exhibition Feature• 2021

WATCHING PRO RODEO Coming out of the starting box, the horse runs alongside the steer and is trained to run on by as the steer wrestler reaches for his steer. With a firm grip on the steer’s right horn, the cowboy hits the ground with his legs extended forward, brings the steer to a dead stop and then using his left hand as leverage under the steer’s jaw, he throws the steer off balance and wrestles it to the ground. The steer must be flat on its side before official time is taken. This event requires an extra horse ridden by a hazer, whose job it is to keep the steer running as straight as possible.

BULL RIDING A braided manilla rope is the cowboy’s only security as he rides a wildly bucking brahma/cross bull. The rope is wrapped loosely around the bull and a weighted cowbell hangs underneath. When the ride is over, the cowbell pulls the rope free. The bull rider will be disqualified for touching the bull with his free hand or bucking off before the end of the eight-second ride. As it is tremendously difficult just to remain on top of these loose-hided animals, riders are not required to spur.

The successful bull riders keep themselves close to their handhold throughout the whole ride. This prevents the holding

arm from straightening and jerking the hand loose. Bull riding, the most dangerous of all rodeo events, demands that a bullfighting clown be in the rodeo arena during each ride. As the cowboy dismounts or is thrown from the bull, the bullfighter distracts the animal until the bull rider reaches safety.

LADIES BARREL RACING The only ladies’ event in professional rodeo, the contestant must cross the scoreline and run a clover-leaf pattern around three barrels and back across the scoreline to end time.

Either barrel, on the left or right, may be taken first, but a contestant will be disqualified for not following the cloverleaf pattern. If a barrel is knocked down, no time is awarded, but a contestant may, from a riding position, hold a barrel from falling. The time is generally taken with the use of an electric eye to the hundredths of a second.

Chris LeBlanc brings white hot fun to 2021 DC Exhibition watering hole He played the Stampede this year, just returned from a run of shows in Grande Prairie and preps for a residence at the Watering Hole at the Dawson Creek Stampede and Exhibition. He says it was great to see fans back out.

“It is great to see the fans back out and singing back to you, and be able to get up and dance.”

During the down time LeBlanc started working on his home studio and putting that together – as well as some writing. LeBlanc is a watering hole regular and will be playing some new tunes.

“We’ve got some new stuff for an album – we’re going to road test them and get a new album out early next year.”

LeBlanc says his writing process has changed over the last year.

“I always used to right thinking about radio first and live second. This time around I thought about the live experience first – everything being about fun.”

LeBlanc plans to hit the big Alberta and Western Canada festivals next year – but you can catch him this year at the Exhibition Watering Hole

Farmer Needs The Rain

By Roy Forbes (from the C.D. “Almost Overnight”) Ooh the farmer needs the rain And the farmer needs the heat Needs it in the proper order To grow a field of wheat But when the wind keeps a blowin’ Blowin’ everything away You can bet your boots the farmer’s gonna pay Ah, the government is helpful They tell you what to plant You take it into town They turn around and say, “No tanks.”

And then the cops pull you over Right in front of the bank Just wanna see if you’ve got Purple gas in your tank

And then the credit man comes to see you At the break of day He might have to take the truck Cos you can’t pay right away And you look towards the sky All your praying in vain We got a lotta bills to pay When do we get a break The farmer needs, the farmer needs the rain

Well it’s another dry sundown Navy blue and red Linda’s out sellin’ Tupperware and the kids are tucked in bed Ah the radio is cracklin’

And the tractor’s in the shed and I’m thinkin’ ‘bout some things my father said He said the farmer needs the rain And the farmer needs the heat Needs it in the proper order To grow a field of wheat But when the wind keeps a blowin’ Blowin’ everything away You can bet your boots the farmer’s gonna pay
