The Rodeo

The Rodeo, a place for ties and connections

     Every February the nation’s fourth largest city welcomes local and foreigners to celebrate Agriculture, Education, Entertainment & Western Heritage.
The trails created by the Old West Pioneers lead participants through 13 different routes to approach the city for a celebration that lasts 20 days creating and maintaining ties with farmers and cattlemen, while providing entertainment and support for education.
