Setup has begun for Wild West Frogfest and Rodeo at the Herkimer County Fairgrounds.  Check out this gallery of photos as Painted Pony Rodeo begins constructing the arena.Until you have watched the rodeo set up, you never realize the work that goes in to it, including picking up any rocks bigger than a marble.  Of course the concert stage is being set too, where Rodney Atkins will perform his long string of hits tomorrow afternoon.  Stage and sound crew will be working into the wee hours of the morning getting everything ready for Rodney's sound check Saturday morning at 9. That will be followed by Jeff Bates' sound check. Gates open at 9, with the rodeo starting at noon and the Wild West Frogfest concert stage begins at 2:30.  Tickets are available at the gate just 18 bucks with kids 10 and under free.  For more information, check out Frogfest Rodeo.com
