Rising Sun Rodeo 2013 set for Sunday October 26th

Oct 10, 2013 Sports

Its Rodeo time again on the West Coast of Berbice at the Rising Sun Turf Club, West Coast Berbice as the Rising Sun Rodeo Committee brings off another grand one day action packed Rodeo on Sunday October 26 beginning at 11:00 hrs. The event has by now become an annual affair and Kaieteur Sports understand that this year there will be a number of new features as the event gets bigger every year.
The idea of bringing the event to the coast is to help those who are interested in the sport and have never seen the activity and are unable to travel to the interior, to be able to see what a rodeo is like and participate in the fun fill and trilling events. It will be a day full of fun, thrills, skills and excitement with vaqueros from throughout the country expected to display their skills.”
A number of regular events are listed for the day including steer roping, bare back bronco, male and female barrel race, wild cow milking, calf roping, wild bull riding, and saddle bronco and the popular Tug o War event along with the new events.
Vaqueros (cow boys) are expected from overseas including Brazil, Suriname and Venezuela to match skills with their Guyanese counterparts. Locals are expected from the Interior locations of Guyana including Lethem and the Rupununi Savannahs.
The best vaqueros will be on show and a number of incentives will be available.
