Then, at 5:00 PM, it’s time for the Calcutta Team Auction — bid on your favorite riders for a chance to win back money when your team wins!
🎟️ Main Performance Highlights:
When the chutes open, the excitement really kicks off! Enjoy jaw-dropping performances from Pueblo’s own Tuff Ingo, dazzling routines by the Top Hands Royalty, and non-stop laughs and entertainment from rodeo clown JD Shultze.
We’ll also celebrate hope and new beginnings during the SOBER COWBOY Scholarship Presentation, honoring individuals making positive impacts in the recovery and western communities.
For the crowd, there’s even more fun in store — cheer on the kids’ stick horse race, jump into the adult boot race, and don’t miss our giveaways from local sponsors throughout the night!
This event combines the thrill of rodeo with a mission that matters — raising awareness for addiction recovery and celebrating the strength of our Western community!
