In the top photo, 5-year-old Hunter Maxwell of Los Molinos throws a rope over a dummy calf, and in the bottom two, Cheyenne Pilger, 11, of Los Molinos teaches Alyssa Perry, 8, of Red Bluff how to handle a rope, and Alyssa finally ropes the fake calf.
The photos were taken at Tehama County 4-H clubs' annual dummy roping competition on Saturday in front of the old courthouse in Red Bluff. It's a way to introduce city kids to things that are done on a ranch, although many ranching kids showed up to test their skills with ropes.
The event was part of a week-long series of activities leading up to the Red Bluff Round-Up. For my story, check CapitalPress.com later today.
