It was a beautiful weekend for the 17th Annual Steve Maddalena Memorial Team Roping. It’s hard to believe that it has been 17 years already! Although I’m biased because Steve was my dad, this is still my favorite roping of the year. We took a chance this year in changing the roping from the first weekend in August to the second weekend in August, simply because there are so many other ropings happening throughout the state. Although we gained many of the ropers that would typically travel to Winnemucca for the WSTR, we did lose others to the Siskiyou and Nevada county fairs, Gilroy Rodeo, and Madonna Inn WSTR, just to name a few.
While we missed many friends this year, I was incredibly thankful for those who continue to show up year after year, despite other roping opportunities, and share their fond memories of my dad. I always get a kick out of the stories that people tell, such as his hilarious answering machine messages, inappropriate birthday cards, and his ability to keep a crowd of people up all night telling stories. He was one of a kind, a true friend to all who knew him, and had the ability to brighten up just about anyone’s day.
We had a great turnout of ropers and incredible weather…all in all it was an awesome weekend! Thank you to Rachel Kent and the rest of the secretary staff, the Sierra Valley Roping Club, Brew, our girls in the concession stand, all of the sponsors, and most of all, a huge, sincere thank you to all of the ropers and their families that continue to make this roping so special! You have helped keep my dad’s memory alive and well, and it’s fun to see even those who never met him, get to know him through your memories!
Until next year…TOOTLES!
