TOWNSEND — Townsend, the home of national high school finals champion Ella Begger, is rooted in rodeo success.
These folks are now celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Broadwater County Rodeo, which got underway July 31 and will continue through Sunday with the grand parade that begins at noon. The in-county adult rodeo will continue at 2 p.m. Sunday with the 4-H open class exhibits as well as a 4-H silent auction.
