What do small cities in Utah have in common? For one thing, the rodeo:

Every summer, small cities in Utah host rodeo events that offer a glimpse at tomorrow's rodeo stars. These minor league rodeos are major league events to the folks in places like Lehi, Utah, population 19,000. The people unite together to put on a great rodeo. And the cowboys who participate in it know it. As one cowboy put it:
"But when you come to a place like Lehi, I mean, this is a community effort. Everybody gets involved. Everybody wants it to be successful. Everybody's demeanor is rodeo-driven. That makes small-town rodeos special."
Indeed, what Lehi is offering is more than a rodeo; it's offering a sense of community. Now that's something to hang your hat on.
