Around Kansas - It's the Year of the Cowgirl at the Kansas Cowboy Hall of Fame - November 30, 2016
Frank) Back again. (Deb) For those of you who are not informed yet, this has been and still is the Year of the Cowgirl. Every year the Kansas Cowboy Hall of Fame, and what a distinguished group of honorees that is, inducts the cowboys, the entertainers, the working cowboys, people who had been involved in advancing Western heritage and culture and working in traditional Western jobs. It honors those folks. This year, it decided to turn to the women and honor them. Man, those were some tough decisions because there were a lot of women in Kansas that fit the bill. Dodge City, the Boot Hill Casino which is amazing. You know, we went in to the Boot Hill Casino, Michael and I did, and he won money right off the bat. I was so jealous of that boy. We had a really good prime rib too there in the restaurant. This was awesome. An awesome event and congratulations to these amazing ladies. Let's take a look at the honorees. Five legendary Kansas cowgirls were honored this month for their contributions to the western lifestyle as they were inducted into the Kansas Cowboy Hall of Fame in Dodge City. Kansas Cowboy Hall of Fame inductees are selected by a committee in five different categories. Each inductee has contributed significantly to the western heritage lifestyle and preservation of the cowboy culture in Kansas. They personify cowboy ideals of integrity, honesty and self-sufficiency. The Year of the Cowgirl, the 2016 inductees are: Vicki Johnson, Holcomb, Kansas - Working Cowboy/Cowgirl; Jane Koger, Matfield Green, Kansas - Cattleman/Rancher; Margie Roberts Hart, Chase County, Kansas - Rodeo Cowboy/Cowgirl; Joyce Thierer, Emporia, Kansas - Cowboy/Cowgirl Historian and Martina McBride, Sharon, Kansas - Cowboy/Cowgirl Entertainer/Artist. The induction ceremony was held at the Boot Hill Casino & Resort Conference Center in Dodge City. Special guest, Diana Vela, PhD from the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame was the featured speaker. Other “Year of the Cowgirl” events included a concert by Martina McBride and tours of Dodge City, made possible by a generous grant from ITC, Great Plains. ITC president Brett Leopold said that ITC is proud to partner with the Kansas Cowboy Hall of Fame to recognize these five outstanding women and their contributions to the state of Kansas, western heritage lifestyle and preservation of the cowboy culture.
