Story Town with Weldon's (2017)

Weldon Burgoon, rodeo calf roper, saddlemaker, charismatic small business owner and family man, spins stories and insight gleaned from over six decades operating Weldon's Saddle Shop and Western Wear Store in Denton, Texas. Weldon's closure in January 2017 is symptomatic of the passing western way of life, once the heart of this North Texas community. There is insight into the management of a family business and a glimpse of what the future brings. The film features lively historical rodeo footage, Americana images as well as folk music and an original ballad from Denton artists.
