The Town of Talking Rock Council made significant strides during their recent meeting on May 1, 2025, focusing on community engagement and upcoming events. One of the key highlights was the announcement of the Bronco Stampede, scheduled for Saturday, May 31. The council confirmed that permits have been requested to close the main strip for the event, which promises to feature over 60 vendors and a variety of activities for attendees.

Council members expressed enthusiasm for the event, encouraging residents to participate and support local vendors. The Bronco Stampede aims to foster community spirit and attract visitors, similar to the successful Heritage Days celebration.

In addition to the Bronco Stampede, the council reminded residents of their next meeting on June 5, which will include a working group session at 5:30 PM. This ongoing engagement reflects the council's commitment to transparency and community involvement.

Lastly, council members highlighted the recent installation of marble benches along Veterans Parkway in Jasper, showcasing a collaborative effort among the towns of Talking Rock, Nelson, and Jasper. The benches serve as a tribute to the community and provide a beautiful space for residents and visitors alike.

As the council continues to plan and promote local events, the focus remains on enhancing community connections and celebrating the unique spirit of Talking Rock.
