Western Legends Round-Up — Attraction in Kanab

I don't know why my husband's name came up (he did not go with me) and I could not figure out how to change it to mine so here goes. My name is Marlene and I loved Kanab Western Legends Fest. It was like a little piece of Heaven. The people were wonderful and people bent over backward to help you. It was true cowboy style. Instead of doors shutting in your face they were opened by smiling cowboys who tipped their hat to the ladies. The entertainment was wonderful and everyone was so welcoming. My cousin and I went on a one day wagon train and they just were so accommodating and nice. We were lucky enough to get on the wagon with the mules and Casey, Leon and some of their kids were also on the ride. They were very entertaining and even sang a song. My cousin and I also went on a horse drawn wagon to the old fort. We did not have hats or sunscreen and before we knew it we had Brent Chamberlain ride up and give me his cowboy hat and Leon from the wagon train rode up and gave my cousin his cowboy hat and Casey gave us some sunscreen. The hats were a bit big but how many people in the hot Utah sun would give someone the cowboy hat off from their head? The wagon we were on was driven by a really nice guy and his young son. I have to say again I was so impressed with the nice people we met in Kanab. We loved the Roo Arcus concert and meeting the stars. I loved Darby Hinton, Don Collier, Johnny and Bobby Crawford and Wyatt McCrea and Neil Summer and I could go on. What an honor to meet them. Geronimo the play by Rudy Ramos was amazing. If you can go you will be glad that you did. My only complaint was we were to busy. lol Buck Montgomery's wild west show was also amazing. When we were on the one day wagon train ride I fell in a field on some hard ground and I heard a voice say don't get up we will help you and just like that two cowboys were right beside me helping me up. Not my most graceful moment but I was so grateful that they helped me up because I could not have gotten up by myself. If you love the old westerns, cowboys, horses and really nice people go to Kanab you won't regret it. I can't wait to go again. We went last...

The roundup was a very good time WITH some exceptions,which are:: The sound system left a very lot to be desired.Standing on left of stands it was very hard to hear a lot of the questions and answers.You could tell that Clint Walker was having a difficult time hearing the questions to him as was other stars. With people talking in background you could hear them better than questions and answers.That should be addressed before next roundup.ALSO the venue at the high school was a little disorganized. people didn't know where or what was what.People were coming in both doors and getting in line in front of people who were there one half to forty five min. I left after waiting one hour and twenty five min.There should be a time limit with Mr.Walker at about ten min.so more people will have a chance to visit.Aside from above it was well worth it to make the trip and Kudos to the woman who did all the...
