The Rodeo Committee has joined Wrangler in it's "Tough Enough To Wear Pink" promotion to raise funds to fight breast cancer on behalf of our local WIGS organization.  We have adopted Wrangler's "Tough Enough To Wear Pink" theme for our final evening rodeo performance on Sunday, June 28th.  The Roughrider Commission will be making a donation to the WIGS organization on behalf of everyone wearing pink to the rodeo.
   



The Wrangler brand is using its strength and association with the rugged cowboy lifestyle to honor breast cancer survivors and the brave women and men who continue to battle the disease.  The concept of tough cowboys wearing pink might sound funny, but it is what makes "Tough Enough To Wear Pink" so special.  Pink symbolizes courage, strength and determination when the western industry comes together in the fight against breast cancer.



DISCOUNT RODEO TICKET INFORMATION:
  The June 26th performance is Rodeo Fan Appreciation Night.  All rodeo tickets will be discounted $2, making adult tickets $10 and kids tickets $4.  The evening of June 27th enjoy the Larry Heiser Motors Kids Night.  All little cowboys and cowgirls, 12 years of age and under, get in free when accompanied by an adult.

ON SUNDAY, June 28th, DON'T FORGET TO WEAR PINK AND HELP SUPPORT CANCER AWARENESS!!!  The Roughrider Commission will be donating $1 to WIGS for each person that attends the rodeo wearing pink.
