Post offices in Holbrook, Winslow, Snowflake, Joseph City, Heber and Overgaard, as well as the Navajo County Historic Courthouse in Holbrook, have a barrel placed in the lobby for depositing letters that will be stamped with a special cachet for the ride. Hashknife riders and a couple of young helpers pictured here at the Holbrook Post Office include (front row, left to right) Phil Cobb, Kashlie Bielefeldt, Sgt. Steve Thomas, Jerry Young, Captain Mark Reynolds holding Crawford Bielefeldt, Chris Baker, Gary Hayes Jr. and Chairman Swing Boss Tim Kelley.
