On July 20 and 21, Keep Memory Alive hosted the annual Shakespeare Ranch Rodeo in Glenbrook, Nevada to support Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health’s work towards enhanced treatments and research of neurocognitive disorders.

On Friday, guests saddled up to watch exciting professional rodeo tricks by The All-American Cowgirl Chicks, barrel racing and bronc riding.  Kids took part in a watermelon eating contest and everyone enjoyed an evening of Western style barbeque topped with a luxurious silent auction.

On Saturday night, Sammy Hagar entertained guests with his musical talent as they wined and dined on Chef Emeril Lagasse’s signature cuisine. The weekend was completed with celebrity appearances by Robin Williams, Ray Romano and John O’Hurley.

The rodeo was resurrected in 2000 by Camille and Larry Ruvo, along with the McGill family in after it was discontinued in 1965.
