The 64th Annual Glennville Rodeo Round-Up

home-rodeo:

The Biggest One-Day Rodeo in the Nation!

The 64th Annual Glennville Rodeo will be held on Sunday, June 10th, 2012; the gates open at 11:30 am and the Rodeo begins at 1:30 pm.  Rodeo fans are invited to join us for "COWBOY CHURCH" on Sunday at 8:30 am with breakfast available from 7 am-11 am.

Cowboy Church-goers will then be invited to share breakfast with us before heading up to HWY 155 for the RODEO ROUND-UP PARADE, which begins at 11 am. Our little parade will feature the 2012 Miss Glennville Rodeo Queen Contestants, community entries and floats! Join us this year in supporting Small Miracles Foundation, a non-profit Kern County foundation that provides financial, physical and emotional support for families dealing with childhood cancers. 

The rodeo grounds will open at 11:30 am and rodeo fans will find food, drinks and fun for the whole family. Feast on BBQ Tri- Tip, hamburgers, hot dogs and salads inside the arena. Outside the arena, we will have a full BBQ deep pit meal in our beautiful park area. PRCA Cowboys and Cowgirls will be on hand to sign autographs and talk to rodeo fans in the park area before the rodeo. Bring your camera for a picture with your favorite PRCA Contestant!  Proceeds benefit the Greenhorn Mountain Veterans Association. We will also have a large variety of vendors on the grounds; so come early and shop! Our Grand Entry will begin at 1 PM with a special salute to our veterans and a moving patriotic presentation. Our Queen Coronation will be at 1:20 and then it's Rodeo Time!


THE GLENNVILLE RODEO IS NOW PART OF THE ALL AMERICAN PRORODEO SERIES!  This ambitious new project for the PRCA attracts the top talent in the PRCA to small rodeo's like ours. Cowboys and Cowgirls who compete in the ALL AMERICAN PRORODEO SERIES earn points to qualify them for the ALL AMERICAN PRORODEO SERIES FINALS.  Lucky qualifiers will compete at the finals in Waco, Texas in November, where they ride for their share of the $500,000 prize money. As a ALL AMERICAN ProRodeo even in 2010, the GLENNVILLE RODEO anticipates double the entries in almost every event.
