The Ute Stampede will be in Nephi, Utah next week, so dust off the hat and shine your spurs. Here is what some of the activities were during the Stampede of 1941.

This is from the personal journal of one Alma Jones, which shows some of the activities during rodeo week and the days after. We have typed some of it to make it more clear for the reader.
