Well, the Cattlemen's Ball is fast approaching. June 2, 2007. The location for the Cattlemen's Ball this year is Lodgepole, NE. The Cattlemen's Ball is being hosted this year by Sandpoint Land and Cattle, about a mile east of quiet, serene Lodgepole.

Jo Dee Messina is the featured evening entertainment.

90% of the proceeds will go to the UNMC Eppley Cancer center.

There is also people painting some huge cowboy boots that will be auctioned at the Ball. Nationally known artist Jess Nelson is painting one of the boots. You can see it here

Should be a good time but I'm guessing it'll be a drunk fest as well. Poor Lodgepole isn't going to know what hit it.
