2021 ROHOF Inductee

The Rural Olympics Hall of Fame committee selected the following candidate for induction in 2021.

Casey Alesso

As Casey Alesso receives his Golden Hay hook Award and is inducted into the Rural Olympics Hall of Fame it will be his twenty-first year of competition. The Hay Loading – Mechanical Field Loader event has long been Event #1 and Casey’s favorite as he grew up raising alfalfa on the family ranch and put in countless hours loading the bales with his Haro-Bed Bale Wagon. Casey had fifteen top three finishes with two as the first place trophy the winner. Besides the Field Loader competition Casey has one second place in the very competitive Antique Auto Potato Race and five top three places in the very fast paced and exhausting Hay Stealing competition.
