Thank You everyone who sponsored keeping THE BOOT as apart of the permanent collection and will be on display inside the museum (it's currently in the Cultural Crossroads Learning Center, but that may change). the Desert Caballeros Museum in Wickenburg, Arizona at the Sunday Auction at COWGIRL UP! 2016.
Why the THE BOOT is so significant: The Boot was purchased at the Saturday night auction by the DeVore Family Foundation, who generously donated it back to the Desert Caballeros Museum in honor of the late Dick DeVore, longtime friend and supporter of DCWM. Additionally eleven individuals and families each pledged $1,000 to ensure the Boot's legacy at DCWM.
Those names are:
Lynn and John Boyer, Betsy and Myron Deibel, Gail and Arthur Ditto, Rich DeVore, Lori and Richard Jaros, Rea and Jim Ludke, Sally and Monte Miller, Eleanor Nolan, Judy and Lee Schuster, Elaine and Peter Schweitzer and Betty and Tom Watt.
Sunday morning at the Quick Draw action, The Boot was donated was an exceptional touching event, I was in tears as were many others. The Devore family were so gracious. Thank you and the Sponsors who gave so generously to keep The Boot at the museum. Our words cannot express the gratitude, Roger & I feel for your generosity. We are so proud to have been asked to do THE BOOT! Thank you.
