It was a natural urge for Campbell to rodeo which he did by entering the first Spray Rodeo in bareback and bull riding which he continued to do for three or four years. He has attended all but one of the Spray Rodeos. Campbell has lived on the Campbell Ranch at Kimberly since 1950. In addition to being a supporter of the Spray Rodeo, he has served as a director of Columbia Power Co-op the past 30 years, was a director on the Monument School Board 17 years and has been a member of the Monument Grazing Association for 30 years. Besides ranching, Tom and his wife, Deborah, own and operate the Kimberly Store and Post Office. They have six grown children and 12 grandchildren. Tom states that he is honored to serve as the grand marshall of the 1999 Spray Rodeo and hopes to see everyone there. 1999 Spray Rodeo Grand Marshal Tom Campbell Tom Campbell, this year's Spray Rodeo grand marshal, was bom and raised on the family ranch at Lonerock, "about 25 horseback miles from Spray", according to Campbell. Campbell's July 12, 1925, birth certificate states Gilliam County, although Tom says he was bom in Wheeler County because the house straddles the county line and he was bom in a south bedroom. At birth he was nicknamed (Bunny still used by family and old friends like Juanita Johnson. Campbell's life has always involved livestock. Horses were the means of getting to school as well as almost everywhere else he went. He has fond memories of being in the Condon area duiing the 1940s with his favorite cowboy legend being Howard Johnson. 4-H News Community Calendar info North Lex Livestock By Emily McElligott Key and Natalie The meeting of the North Lex Livestock Club took place Sunday, April 14, at,l p.m. at tho lone Fire Hall.
