Out and About, August 17-19, 2012

Party on, Pincher Creek

Pancakes, our Premier, dancing in the street, Gymkhana, a parade, rodeo, rodeo, and more rodeo:  just the tip of the iceberg in the Pincher Creek Voice inbox at the moment.  We've got hours of video and tons of photos and stories coming soon.  First, we're going to take a nap and so we can be ready for one more day of the Pincher Creek Pro Rodeo.  Here's a peek at some of the stories we're working on.

Walker demonstrated an amazing repertoire of stylin'
moves at the Street Dance on Friday evening.
