Roy Rogers put God Family Country in that exact order.
COWBOY UP !! Come Join Us For Some Good Ole Portsmouth, OH takes on a western feel during the annual Roy Rogers Festival held in downtown Portsmouth. Cowboy & Cowgirl enthusiasts gather for a few days for memorabilia, celebrities and alot of western fun. It's like a family reunion each year. You can have lunch with western stars and top off the fun-filled days with a grand banquet. Roy Rogers lived on Duck Run, in nearby McDermott, OH for a period of his youth and attended what was then McDermott High School. His boyhood home is privately owned now and no longer open for tours, but there's a nice historical marker in front of the home where you may take some great photos or video to capture the moments. 2010 will mark the 27th year for our annual event. As always, our festival is held the first weekend in June. Our 2010 Roy Rogers Festival will be held June 2-5, 2010 at the Ramada in downtown Portsmouth, OH.
"America's Western Sweetheart" Come join in the cowboy fun and welcome Belinda Gail and our other guests. We have confirmations from James Drury - The Virginian, Marlyn Mason, Gary Lockwood, Dodie Rogers-Patteson (Roy and Dale's youngest daughter), and her musically talented husband, Jon Patterson. Jon has a big surprize for all the youngsters and the "young at heart" this year. Be sure to bring your little buckaroos and buckarettes!! Other guest confirmations are still pending. The Roy Rogers Festival honors our area native, Leonard Slye, aka, Roy Rogers and his lovely bride of over 50 years, Dale Evans. The annual auction proceeds raises money for the Roy Rogers Scholarship Fund. A scholarship is given to a deserving Scioto County, OH high school senior each year.
Cowboys and cowgirls from all over the globe will have a rip roarin' time! They will be taken back to those wondrous days of yesteryear when cowboys were king and the good guys rode off into the sunset.
We wanted a way to reach out to more Roy and Dale's fans, so we decided to throw our cowboy hat into the ring and join the ranks.
