forthwith return such payment(s) to County. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement,
unexpended funds advanced by County, if any, shall forthwith be returned to County.

4. Budget/Pricing
CERVI has provided prices for both a one (1) year contract, as well as a three (3) and five (5) year contract,
should EAGLE decide to extend the terms of the contract for three (3) or five (5) additional periods, with
the same terms and conditions. While these prices are negotiable, the percentage increase is derived from
CERVI’s standard policy of a 2-4% increase each year to compensate for inflation and the cost of living.
The increase in price from the previous contract in 2023, to the new bid price in 2024, is due to
hiring new contract personnel.

5. Familiarity with Eagle County
Cervi Rodeo has enjoyed getting to know the Staff and Volunteers, who are the backbone of the Eagle
County Fair and Rodeo. The beautiful setting, overwhelmingly energetic crowds, and top-tier
professionalism of Eagle County makes this rodeo one to envy. It would be an honor to continue to work
alongside Eagle County to take this rodeo to newer heights.
Cervi has provided a Performance Review, separate from this proposal, analyzing the last three (3) years
of the Eagle County Fair and Rodeo. In the Review, Cervi has included specific ways Eagle County can
maintain the successful qualities of this rodeo, while obtaining measurable goals for the future. The
assessment is based upon experienced personnel observations, as well as data provided by the PRCA.
Cervi would look forward to further presenting these observations, should Eagle request a time to
collaborate and discuss together in person.

In 2024 I will be adding some of the sport’s most prestigious events to my resume. Including Reno, Pendelton,
San Angelo and Caldwell in 2025.
My form of comedy is true entertainment. I truly care about how the audience feels. Expect off the hip humor,
dancing, crowd participation and the ability to fill any break in the action whether it be 2 or 20 minutes. I have
performed in 5 countries and 48 states. I am quite often hired on a multi-year basis, which should indicate my
ability to keep things fresh. I even have a 7yr contract with Missoula, Montana.
I pride myself on my level of professionalism outside of the arena as well. I have a few working methods that can
help you get and maintain sponsorship for your event even after I’m gone.
I am a husband to my wife Bonnie for 20 years in August of 2024.
I am a father of two daughters of which (Ruia, my oldest at 15yr) just received her PRCA permit as a contract act.
She has 2 horses that she performs liberty with. We plan to try to book a number of events together in the coming
years to travel as a family.
