STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

The Obamas probably are busy this weekend, John “Doc” Daughenbaugh joked, explaining why he and his wife were chosen as parade grand marshals. Doc and Marsha Daughenbaugh are scheduled to lead today’s Fourth of July Parade on Lincoln Avenue in downtown Steamboat Springs. The two weren’t sure Thursday what their duties would entail, and they didn’t have big plans to dress up, shake hands or kiss babies. “I’m not running for office,” Doc Daughenbaugh said. They were nominated by Sandy Evans Hall, executive vice president of the Steamboat Springs Chamber Resort Association. The Chamber and the Cowboy Roundup Days committee choose the grand marshals, she said. “It was primarily for the work that they’ve done with the agricultural alliance and what they’ve brought to the valley with cultural heritage tourism and the multiple generations they have in ranching,” Evans Hall said. The Daughenbaughs represent the core of what Cowboy Roundup Days is all about: celebrating the ranching heritage of the area, she said. The couple will ride in the front of the parade and then sit on the judges’ stand and watch. Marsha Daughenbaugh said she figured the ranching ties earned the couple the JOEL REICHENBERGER/STAFF Marsha and John Daughenbaugh will be the grand marshals of the Fourth of July Parade today in Steamboat Springs. The honor. She’s the executive parade starts at 10 a.m. along Lincoln Avenue. The theme is ‘Steamboat Seasons … Celebrating the Beauty.’ For a calendar of the director of the Community weekend’s events, see page 6. See Ranchers, page 12
