Calling all kids!  Attention moms, dads, and legal guardians of little cow kids wanting to Mutton Bust. We are offering Mutton Bustin' as a pre-rodeo activity both nights this year.  We would LOVE you to be a part of it with us :)

If you have a child 5 years or older and 55 lbs or less, please consider signing them up in advance to ensure they have a chance to ride.  The number of riders is limited for this activity!  (we only have so many of these cute little sheep to ride!)  Its going to be a GREAT show!!  Click on the sheep image above to pay the $10 registration fee, complete the waiver and to get signed up!
DISCLOSURE!!  In all fairness!  If you sign up to Mutton Bust and are not in position as instructed (on time!) we must move on and will select kids who are on the waiting list.  It is extremely sad to see people (kiddos) come 3 minutes after we are forced to let their spot go, PLEASE plan accordingly. We ask all kids to be in position (north west corner) at 5:35 p.m. each night. Thank you!
 

BOX SEATING! (see picture's directly below this description)

Grab some buds and let us host your pizza party in our BOX SEATS!!!  All ages welcome.  Chanticlear Pizza is sponsoring this great opportunity by catering to our box seat attendees with pizza, boneless chicken wings, Chanti Stix and all the fixins!  And, it's all included in the cost of the box!  Lets break this down...elevated and covered seating, an abundance of Chanticlear Pizza's best menu items, 5 beverages each up to 10 people per box AND the best rodeo'n you're going to see this summer?  Sign me up!

Box seating is elevated on the north end of the arena above and behind the north bleachers.  Box seats are half-walled cubicals that seat 1-10 people in folding chairs (children included).  Box Seating ticket holders each recieve 5 drink tickets to purchase drinks of your age appropriate choice from the beer/pop/water troughs. (each participant in the box receives 5 tickets)  Prices for this years box seating is $600 per box for Friday or Saturday!  Contact us today if interested
