Some people had posted pictures and there were some comments from people who had attended all those years ago. (They ended sometime in the 1950's) I can no longer find the site. My father, Gordon J. Leraas, was one of the performers in that show, as well as others he traveled to in North and South Dakota. His cousin Ansel Christenson was also in the rodeos, and sometimes was the MC. My Dad is now 89 years old and last week we took him to visit the old site and meet the third generation of Whipples who still own the ranch. I am wondering who I can contact to share old photos that my parents took all those years ago. I did not have access to them last winter, but now I have them and would love to share them with the person who had posted the Whipple Ranch Rodeo site. Thanks!
