Sonora, CA — A Mother’s Day tradition in Tuolumne County celebrates its 61st year and will be the focus of this weekend’s Mother Lode Views.

The Mother Lode Roundup features many events leading up to the famous parade and professional rodeo. Hear about all there is to do, see and enjoy in the Mother Lode Views interview. Guests include members of the Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Posse: General Chairman of the Mother Lode Roundup Al O’Brien, Rodeo Chairman Dan Durnall, Rodeo Mentor Ty Wivell, and 2018 Captain of the Sheriff’s Posse Steve Oliveira. They will rundown all the details including those vying to be the Mother Lode Roundup Queen.

The Top Hand Award goes to Kelly Robinson this year and the Mother of the Year is “Moty” Mary Ann Santos Oliveria.
