Yippee! Rodeo, parade crowds jump
Some 6,000 people attended weekend rodeo events, a 20 percent jump from last year, said Payson Director of Tourism and Economic Vitality Cameron Davis. Although the number of competitors and prize money declined this year, Davis credited a $13,000 advertising campaign in the Valley and nearby towns with a heartening increase in attendance. In addition, the Saturday morning Rodeo Parade down Main Street drew more than 1,000 spectators and 71 entries, up from 42 last year, said Davis.
