1. "Bob and Bonnie Riding" Marker
Inscription. Bob and Bonnie Riding are local legends who have been a part of Kanab's Western Legends Heritage Festival for over 20 years. Bob even served as a bugle boy in a western filmed in Kanab when he was just a teen. Since the inception of their involvement, Bob and Bonnie have played an integral part in every facet of the Western Legends Festival. With the help of friend and legendary stuntman/actor Neil Summers, they have recruited some of the top names in both classic and modern western films and television series that were filmed in and around Kanab to attend the Western Legends Festival. Their passion for western culture, their dedication to preserving it, and their love for the Kanab community is reflected in the work they put in to Western Legends - and a shining example to all of us.

Thank you, Bob and Bonnie, for your years of support and devotion. You both are true Western Legends.
