Trip to Denver
BY jeanette Scheetz

49, S0SieAAA6y Oil GhptIISG-
paid trip to Denver, Colorado, TO
attend the National All club
roundup, was awarded to me. l
was chosen for the trip on my
records and my demonstration on
making bread.
There were 1877 All members
attending the roundup from eight
different states. Among these were
IL members from Montana and
three leaders. They were all a
wonderful group of All members
and leaders.
We met at Billings on January
8 at noon. We travelled as far
as Douglas, Wyoming the first
night. The next day we arrived
at Fort Collins, Colorado and
stayed there until noon the next
day. During this time the judging
team did some judging while the
rest of us toured the college cam
pus. We left for Denver from Fort
Collins at noon Friday.
We stayed at the Albany hotel.
This is a very nice hotel in down.
town Denver. We had most of
our meals and meetings In rooms
provided for us at the hotel.
Since we arrived in Denver two
days before the roundup actually
started, we got to do some shop
ping and sightseeing in Denver.
Saturday morning we watched the
Stock Show Parade.
The roundup started Sunday af-
ternoon with a tour of the City
Park museum. Sunday night we
held a Sunday Evening Hour in
which all the members took part.
The roundup is held to CORES
pond with the National Western
Stock Show; therefore we were
able to watch the judging in the
morning and attend the rodeo
in the afternoon. The rodeo was
much like the Richland County
Fair Rodeo except that in be-
tween the rodeo acts they had a
horse show. This was very in
~teresting and new to me. At noon
Monday the girls went to a tour
and luncheon at the Swift's Com
pany while the boys went to a
tour of the Cudahy Packing Com
pany. That evening we had a
friendship party at the hotel.
Tuesday morning we had a
transforming jamboree at which
we discussed different problems
of teenagers and All members.
This was really a way of finding
out about the other members
there. We also had a tour of the
Colorado State Capital where we
heard the governor speak and
learned a little about the legis-
lature. That noon we we're guests
of the Montgomery Ward Co., for
a tour and luncheon at their
store. At this luncheon we were
all given nice leather billfolds
and the girls received green and
white carnations. Tuesday evening
we were treated to the movie,
around the World in Eighty
Days, as guests of the Fox In
ter-Mountain Amusement Corp.
Wednesday we were guests of
Public Service in Denver. We
were shown how the new cleo
tronic ovens work and different
things about electricity. From
there they treated us to a tour
of the city on a tour of the United
Airlines at Denver. At noon the
girls and women went to the
Denver Dry Goods Co. for a
luncheon while the boys went to
the Gate Rubber. Company. Since
Wednesday evening was our last
night at Denver we had a big
banquet sponsored by the Daniels
and Fisher Stores Co. Present at
this banquet were several we'll
known personalities of Denver
including the governor and the
mayor. After the banquet we had
a party at the hotel.
We left Denver Thursday and
arrived home Friday evening.
This trip was very inspiration
al, interesting and educational to
me. I wish everyone had the same
chance, as I did, to go on a
trip like it. / thank anyone who
made it possible for me to at
tend National All Club Roundup
at Denver.
