Rodeo Women: behind the scenes
Rodeo Women: Behind the Scenes
Takes an inside look at the work that women do in making the rodeo happen. Some raise bucking horses; some drive trucks and trailers; some work as secretaries and timers; and some run local rodeo committees. And so much more. First a documentary film and then a multi- format book both on line and in print will tell all!!
