The event, California’s largest Western festival, highlights Palm Springs and its downtown business community against the backdrop of the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto National Monuments. This event, now in its second year, is inspired by the late Mayor Frank M. Bogert’s vision of a resort town that hosts Hollywood celebrities, heads of state and cowboys of all ages.
The 2011 Palm Springs WestFest & Frank Bogert Memorial Rodeo is scheduled for March 24-27, 2011. Portions of the proceeds from the WestFest & Rodeo go to a variety of charitable foundations in the area including United Way of the Desert, the Frank Bogert Memorial Scholarship Fund, the Pinnacle Fund for Excellence in Education, the Cielo Vista Charter School, the Palm Springs Youth League, and the USO at Palm Springs International Airport.
