The Chisholm Trail RAM Prairie Circuit Finals Rodeo committee donated $1,000 on June 7 to the Taylor Le Norman/McCastland Cancer Center at Duncan (Okla.) Regional Hospital, and another $1,000 to Relay for Life. Joe Henderson, a board member for the group, personally delivered the check to staff at the cancer center. He said the money is from profits and proceeds earned from the rodeo last October. The RAM Prairie Circuit Finals Rodeo was held Oct. 19-21, in Duncan, Okla. “We do the Prairie Circuit Finals each year in October, and we’re fortunate to have extra money,” Henderson said in the June 8 edition of The Duncan (Okla.) Banner. “We feel like we need to give back to the community with that.” This is not the rodeo’s first time making a contribution to the community, it has been giving proceeds to other organizations in need for the last seven years.
