Sign-up required for these events, between 5:30pm and 7pm, before the rodeo starts.
Calf Scramble
In the Calf Scramble, children between the ages of 4 and 10 gather in a line-up in the arena while calves with ribbons on their tails are turned out. The objective is to grab a ribbon or any part of that ribbon off a calf's tail and return it to the Arena Official. Once all the ribbons have been removed from the calves' tails, the contest is over. The first three contestants that turn in ribbons receive awards. All participants receive a prize. Competitors must sign up before the rodeo starts at 7 p.m. There is no limit to the number of entries. A parent/legal guardian must sign a Liability Release prior to the start of the contest.
Mutton Bustin'
The Mutton Bustin' event is a crowd favorite! Little buckaroos "cowboy up" and hold on to a woolly sheep for eight exciting seconds. Participation is limited to boys and girls between the ages of 4 and 7 and weighing less than 50 lbs, at the time of the competition. Competitors must sign up for this FREE event before the rodeo starts at 7 p.m. All contestants must have a parent/legal guardian present at the time in order to sign a Liability Release. Entries are only taken on the day of the rodeo (no pre-entry available). Eight contestants will be randomly selected from the pool of qualified entries.
