Get ready, as tomorrow is about here-the first day of the Ute Stampede.

According to the information printed in The Times News, the most exciting rodeo is about to begin. As shown below, the third annual event has rodeo stock coming all the way from Madison Square Garden Rodeo, along with horse races and boxing matches. Although it doesn't list it in the 1937 program, a local Nephi man named Dell Steele was the stand-by boxer in case somebody didn't show up, and nobody wanted to get hit by him. If you have family coming to the rodeo and can't find sleeping quarters, we thought we would list a few of the local accommodation's. If they are filled, then the cowboys that sleep west of the Grandstand under the trees would make room for you, and if it rains they go in to the fairground sheep sheds. Put on your spurs and start kicking, this is the time we all look forward to each year.
