Some lucky child will receive this jail-like playhouse in a drawing at the Ridge Rider Junior Rodeo this weekend. The playhouse, built as a jail, was created by Dustin Carson, an employee of the construction firm. It took Carson about three weeks, during down time, to build the structure. He is shown here with his children, Kelton on the left, and Jaxson. Tickets, $1 each, are on sale at Loepp Furniture. The playhouse is on display in front of the store. The rodeo is free to attend. - Roger S. Lucas photo
