Bring your cameras and capture some of the most exciting type of rodeo activity you will ever see. Watch youngsters show their mettle, and who knows, you may be watching a future rodeo star.

It’s all happening at the Ridge Rider Rodeo Grounds in Delano.

Then there are the fun features like goat tying, goat flanking, mutton busting, goat undecorating, and a whole lot more.

And it’s all free. So bring the family, enjoy the fun, and have lunch out at the Cook Shack, right on the rodeo grounds.
