Riders In The Sky Awarded
Grammy Award-winning Comedy & Western team Riders In The Sky are Honored with the "Cowboy
Spirit Award" at the 2008 National Festival of the West - It's the Cowboy Way!
 
Every year the National Festival of the West presents the
"Cowboy Spirit Award" to recognize those men and women who have set the example of Western
heroes with the integrity, strength of spirit, and moral character depicted by the
American Cowboy. From its inception in 1992 when Dale Evans, "Queen of the West," and
Patsy Montana, "America's No. 1 Cowboy Sweetheart," received their bronzes, this
star-studded presentation ceremony was destined to become the high point of the National
Festival of the West. Since that time, thousands of visitors have witnessed and become an
integral part of the presentation ceremony. "America's Favorite Cowboys’" Riders In
The Sky, and legendary actor John Wayne, were the recipients for 2008.

What's happening the world of traditional country.
