A committee that hosts one of the region's largest rodeos provided $5,000 in financial aid to local non-profit groups last week.

During a meeting Thursday afternoon, representatives from the Daniel Dopps Memorial Rodeo presented checks to 10 organizations with additional scholarship money planned for high school seniors.

"We hope the little bit we are able to provide helps out in a big way," said Matt Chandler, president of the Daniel Dopps Memorial Rodeo organization.
