OUR RICH WESTERN HISTORY
IT ALL STARTED WITH ROY ROGERS AND DALE EVANS!
January 2016 marked the 30th Anniversary of Happy Trails Resort in Arizona, opened in January 1986. The Resort’s Grand Opening was attended by the King of the Cowboys, Roy Rogers, his son Dusty Rogers, and the Queen of the West, his wife Dale Evans. For those too young to remember this couple, Roy came to movie theaters in the 1940’s and 1950’s as a singing cowboy in nearly 100 films.  In the 1950’s, the Roy Rogers Show was in our homes every week for six years in a western-themed television series.  Roy and Dale were shining examples of “good guys” from the Old West.

Roy and Dale gave their name to the new Thousand Trails golf and travel resort named Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Happy Trails Resort.  All the streets are named for elements in his films and TV shows. Examples are Spur, Lariat, Powder Horn and others. The first buyers came in on a muddy, bumpy unpaved Bell Road.  They were the pioneers who settled in Happy Trails when it was only an idea of how great it would become.
