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.
