Wild, Wild West

The Lone Star Rodeo brought its brand of wild west entertainment to the Virginia Horse Center this past Friday and Saturday. Riders competed in (clockwise from top left) bronc riding, team calf roping, bull riding and barrel racing events both nights. Preston Fowlkes established what would become the Lone Star Rodeo in Franklin, Tenn., in 1949 and it is still a family run company. (Joann Ware photos)
