27 reactions | DID YOU KNOW❓In 1933 the rodeo that became the Omak Stampede was just a dream of two Okanogan County stockmen, Leo Moomaw and Tim Bernard, who had started a rodeo string in 1932. They approached Omak's businessmen, who were eager to try anything to keep the Main Street of Omak busy. | Omak Stampede, Inc. | Facebook
