CHENEY -- Several Adams County cowboys and cowgirls competed in rodeos to the north and south of Ritzville last week.
From July 3-5, Basin City hosted the Freedom Rodeo. Then from July 7-9, they moved north to the Cheney Rodeo in Cheney.
Both rodeos featured traditional competitions and were prefaced by community parades.
While official Cheney Rodeo results have yet to be announced, the All-Around Cowboy honors at Freedom Rodeo went to Shane Proctor of Grand Coulee.
One of Eastern Washington's top cowboys, Proctor took home $5,777 for his performance in the saddle bronc and bull riding events. He won the bull riding event, scoring 83 points on Dirty Dan for an additional $7,702 purse. He didn't place in saddle bronc.
