What's happening in Silver City? It has been very busy and exciting the past few weeks in Silver City. The Tour of the Gila was the best ever with Lance Armstrong riding in the race. You could feel the excitment every where to have a celebrity in town. It's not often we have a big name in our small town. Many residents of the town opened their homes to strangers to let me stay because there were not enough motel rooms to go around. A true spirit of cooperation from many people and agencies has to happen to put on that event. Hats off to Jack Brennen for all the work and a successful Tour of the Gila!

Memorial Day is another busy time for Silver City with the annual Blues Festival. Beautiful weather and lots and lots of people and a good time by all!

This week it's Rodeo Time - one of my favorites! Wednesday night was the Boys N the Bulls! Bullriding and exciting!!! Full rodeo every night the rest of the week. It's always great fun. So put on your boots and hats and come join the fun!
