Tom Reeves, from Eagle Butte, S.D., hangs on for dear life during the bronc riding competition at the Rodeo of the Ozarks. Bronc riding is one of the most favorite events among rodeo fans. Phil Gardenhire was the new voice of the Rodeo of the Ozarks. The veteran announcer from Heaven, Okla., called the action from his post on top of the stands during the four-night show. The Old Fort Days Coca Cola Dandies, a precision riding group made up of high school girls from western Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma made two appearances during the Rodeo of the Ozarks and the final parade on July 4.

LJJ CO cc LJJ 14 RAZORBACK jl A Day Without Wine Is Like A Day Without Sunshine - Weiderkehr Weinkellar Restaurant Menu. Remember when Lucy Ricardo and Ethel Murtz got into a fight in a stomping vat with some grape stompers during their vacation in Italy? Arkansas residents got the same opportunity during the Eighth Annual Arkansas Championship Grape Stomp and Cowie Wine Fest held August 8th at the Cowie Wine Cellers located three miles west of Paris. This festival marked the Cowie Winery ' s 20th year of operation which attracted people from all over . We had 250 seats seated outdoors but 500 people showed up, said George Cowie, member of the wine family and UA graduate student. Cowie said he gave the tours of the winery during the festival but does not participate in the annual grape stomp where winners are awarded the Order of the Purple Foot certificate. This procedure involved amateur grape stompers treading the grapes in half- barrels to bluegrass music. The judges of this event were Kevin Bowen, newsman for channel 5 of Fort Smith; Chuck Dobish from channel 1 1 of Little Rock; Coach John McDonnell, UA head track coach, and Bill Paxton, park planner for the Department of Parks and Tourism. Although the Cowie family sponsor the annual grape stomp, take no worry. None of the squashed grapes were used to make wine. Commercially, that ' s not done, Cowie said. Machines do it much faster. Other events were arts and crafts booths, horseshoe competitions, magic shows, and a performance by the Lotus Mid East Dancers. As for George Cowie, he plans to get his master ' s degree in food science and stay in the wine business, possibly with his family. I hope to sometime, Cowie said, but I can ' t plan that far in the future.
