About the BCG

The Tonapah Kidd, Robert Hayes, Ron Johnson, Bill Taylor, Jerry Rushing, Mike Hiestand, Craig Pack, Mike Samaritano, Mike Casha, Ken Fontaine, Blaise Vanderlinden, Eldridge Frodge and later, Uncle Deke, came together and named their group after a well-known Sierra Canyon.

The Blue Canyon Gang has haunted the streets of Old Sacramento since 1972 when these 12 gunslingers banded together and decided to revive the Old West, re-enacting scenarios of more than 100 years ago. They decided that it was important to educate the public on how it was back then (with a sprinkling of humor) observing every safety rule possible to keep things safe for the spectators.

The Gang members have changed over the years but the Tonapah Kidd and Uncle Deke have remained to this day.
