Young adults show strong leadership

The Ridge Riders have completed another year of successful events for all us to enjoy. A big thank you to the entire membership for their hard work.

I would especially like to thank the young adults who organized the Memorial Bull Riding for my dad. These people learned from and corrected mistakes that were made in the past to make this the best event to date. Not many people realize the work and hours that go into the planning of an event like this. Sev and Andrea Carden, Shane and others that helped with this production, a job well done.

I had guests that came from Spokane to experience Colorama and they enjoyed all the festivities. They were especially impressed with the organization of the run and the shirts. To Mandi and Rich Button, thank you.

Thank you to all, Chamber of Commerce and the many volunteers to make the first weekend in May special.

To all the young adults in the area that have stepped into leadership roles, in business, at Faith Community Church, and in other areas of leadership in our community: Without strong leadership from our young adults, life In the Coulee that we now enjoy would soon diminish.

If I have left anybody out, a thank you to you also; I know that there are many doing things I don’t know about.

A grateful senior citizen,

Clea Pryor
