Roadeo
The roadeo will be held on Saturday and we are looking forward to your participation. Many PASS trainings have been conducted around the two states and this is great preparation for the roadeo. This year the roadeo will be conducted by Ron Baumgart and Mike Kayras with assistance by Kelly Shawn from CTAA. Plan to attend to network with other drivers, pick up a few tips to improve your driving skills, have some fun, and if you desire, compete to win a free trip to next year's CTAA roadeo competition held during their national conference. Saturday evening will be a banquet at the historic Ranch A for all roadeo participants to enjoy, make new friends and reestablish relationships with friends you made at previous roadeos.
Historic Ranch A
Nestled in a beautiful canyon along a blue-ribbon trout stream, the 600 acre RANCH A is a magnificent location. RANCH A was originally built during the 1930's as a vacation home for one of America's wealthiest families. It is now on the National Register of Historic Places. The original buildings were constructed of massive pine logs by the finest woodworkers and artisans of the day.
