The first year the Jaycees wanted to hold an amateur rodeo. They purchased their own rodeo animals and then sold the stock after the rodeo. BY 1948, the celebration had grown so large that the Jaycees decided to sponsor a contest. Ken Halls was the contest chairman. The prize was $5. Most suggestions reflected a west- ern theme chuckwagon days, roundup days, etc. The winning entry, Riata Days, was submitted by a Layton resident who wanted to remain anonymous. This re- quest has been respected through the years. The prize money was returned to the Riata Days committee to be used to improve the celebration.

Cost increases have included necessity of buying additional water from Weber Basin Water Conservancy District at about a 12 percent sh.ttiO, meaning the program is almost paid for without subsidy. fee hike.
