It was recently announced that the third annual “Go Rodeo” festival was a go, which set a variety of activities into the planning stages to augment the Annual Labor Day Rodeo sponsored by the Franklin County Sheriff’s Posse. “The festival has definitely boosted rodeo attendance the last two years,” Sheriff’s Posse representative Katrina Easterling said. See the Aug. 4 edition of the Mount Vernon Optic-Herald for more details about the event.
