The City Council granted $5,000 from hotel-occupancy funds to the Junior Rodeo Cowboy Association to bring the event back to Dalhart; staff said the association draws many visiting families.
The Dalhart City Council approved a $5,000 allocation from hotel-occupancy funds May 12 to support the Junior Rodeo Cowboy Association (JRCA) and help return the event to Dalhart.
City staff said JRCA contacted the city seeking support; the association had not been in Dalhart the prior year and organizers asked for $5,000 to help fund the event. Staff reported the event typically brings dozens of families to town; they estimated at least 70 families attend.
Council moved to grant the requested $5,000, and the motion carried on a voice vote.
Staff indicated the funds are intended to support event operations that generate hotel stays and local spending.
