Sassy Lassies
the New Year!
Ready for
Kim Edmonds
The Sassy Lassies are gearing up for the New Year after an
exciting and eventful holiday season. Finishing up after the
holidays, now is the time to focus on events and activities for the
upcoming year. Some of the activities include the Red Hat Sassy
Lassies taking a trip to the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame in Ft.
Worth, Texas, on January 20th.
From its inception, the museum has honored brave women who
played a part in taming the west. The museum honors rodeo
queens and ranch women but it doesn't stop there.
The museum has also inducted women who told their story with
pen, paintbrush and song. Artists like Georgia O'Keeffe, authors
such as Laura Ingalls Wilder, actress Dale Evans, and songster
Patsy Montana share the spotlight with women who established
businesses related to ranch, rodeo and cowboy life. The
National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame is the only one of
its kind in the world, making it a national treasure and a tribute
to women with that cowgirl spirit.
For more information or to register for the trip please contact
