Folsom Rodeo Legend & Community Builder | Guest Adam Frick

What does it take to weave yourself into the heart of a community for over two decades? In this episode of Play Hard & Love Big Radio, host Nick Clark sits down with local Folsom legend and Folsom Times co-founder Adam Frick. What starts as a fun, candid chat about paddle boarding and local waterways quickly turns into an inspiring exploration of civic pride, local tradition, and the power of showing up. Nick and Adam share laughs over Adam's 20-year run emceeing the Folsom Pro Rodeo dressed as Uncle Sam, surviving stolen costumes, and risking life and limb on stilts and unicycles for the sake of community entertainment. They also dive into the upcoming PaddleSplash Water and Wellness Festival, discussing essential Lake Natoma water safety, SUP yoga, and how the festival directly supports youth programs through NorCal SUP Groms. If you love Folsom, enjoy a great local story, or need a reminder to get out and play hard, this episode is for you.
