Western Spirit in an Eastern Town!

April 2nd, 2009 by Kateri Cowley

This week, the Stampede Royalty pulled on our new boots and headed east to Toronto with the promotions commitee to spread some western cheer! We arrived and right away we were whisked off to work to pull apart 2000 cowboy hats, which were destined to be given to lucky Torontarians the following day. We went on our first radio stations, and then headed on down to Dundas Square downtown for the “Git Yer Head in a Hat” promo.
 
The people of Toronto were so excited to see that the Calgary Stampede had come across the country to share some Western Hospitality, and were even more excited to try on their new hats they recived! I tell you, it was as if I was in Calgary right then, watching 2000 cowboy hats walking around, (even though some were on backwards! giggle) I told them to make it authentic, they had to come and watch the rodeo, and make it just a little dirty.
This week we are at Aggie Days in Calgary to help support and teach about all the amazing things Agriculture does for us!

Hope to see you there!
