    I see the gate fee is $10.00…fine but once you pay that fee you shouldn’t have to pay to get into the saloon…come on what happened to good ole cloverdale rodeo. Parking, gate, saloon..etc..it’s starting to get to the point where people are now making decisions on is it worth going in for. Also what about the merchants, I would rather spend my extra saloon fee on some eats or something else. The booze alone makes a hugh profit…someone has to start giving the every day person a break. I’m speaking for a large % of people. At least Fri. and Sun. should still be free.

    Debbie,
    Thank you so much for your comments, and I so agree with you. Everything is so expensive these days, and then the additional fees that get put on top of events makes even more difficult. It’s almost to the point that after rent/mortgage, utilities, gas, and food, the is the pay cheque or a very large portion of it… When will it stop?!?
