Enjoy rodeo action at the professional level at the Red Desert Roundup PRCA Rodeo.

From the classic events of Saddle Bronc , bareback, the fan favorite of bull riding, and the pretty girls & fast horses of barrel racing.  Don’t forget the classic timed events of team roping, steer wrestling, and calf roping.

Pre Show events may vary but they usually have mutton busting, teen cash scramble, and the adult cash scramble.

Join in on the fun of the local county fair.  From livestock shows to fair food, exhibits, vendors, the carnival and concerts there is a little bit of something for everyone.
