Teresia “Terri” Ruckman Reed served as the Grand Marshal for Meeker’s 140th Range Call Fourth of July Parade last week, leading the celebration in honor of this year’s theme, “Women of the West.” A descendant of early pioneers, Reed continues her family’s legacy through her work at the White River Museum and dedication to the community.

Actors reenact the infamous Meeker bank robbery during the 140th Range Call celebration last week, bringing history to life with a dramatic shootout on Main Street. The annual performance remains a crowd favorite, honoring one of the town’s most storied events.
