On Sunday, June 29, 2014, CLN traveled to Prescott after capturing the Flagstaff Pro Rodeo to attend the “Spaghetti Western Dinner” fundraiser for the Granite Mountain Hotshots.

Duane Moore along with Arizona’s favorite country music group, Mogollon, played at the fundraiser event. Mogollon gave back by performing in remembrance of the 20 member hotshots crew, including the lone survivor and the 19 who died in the line of duty during the Yarnell Hill Fire on June 30, 2013.
