This is a big week...

 

Rodeo Houston will end Saturday, handing out $50,000 bonuses to each of it's event champions. 

 

The Dodge National Circuit Finals is this week, with the first performance Wednesday night, March 14 and the final round of the tournament style rodeo Saturday night. 

 

DNCFR Executive Director K.T. Anderson is excited about this year’s field and about putting another top-notch event in Pocatello.

 

“You need a mixture of new guys, former world champions and some people who are knocking on the door to be world champions to make the event successful,” Anderson said. “We’ve got that, and that’s what makes our event work very, very well. The cowboys tell us that this is almost like a vacation for them because they’re treated so well. This is the only other national event besides the Wrangler NFR that the PRCA has, so we’re the other national championship.”  You can hear a complete interview with K.T. Anderson on our interview page...

 

In the Pacific Northwest the Northwest Professional Rodeo Association holds it's first rodeo of 2007, in Elma, WA on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  The rodeo features extra added money in the steer wrestling in memory of a long time rodeo supporter who loved the event. 

 

This year marks the 14th anniversary of the Elma Rodeo, the first for NPRA members who are trying to qualify for the finals in September in Sisters, OR.

 

We'll have updates from all of these events on our blog page...
