WC to host home Lone Star Region Rodeo
With the reorganization of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association, Weatherford College will now host a home rodeo on an annual basis. The inaugural WC Lone Star Region Rodeo will take place Oct. 9-11 at the Parker County Sheriff’s Posse grounds.
This new opportunity for a home rodeo is a result of the NIRA splitting the large Southwest Region into two smaller, more manageable regions. WC joins Angelo State University, Cisco College, Ranger College, Sul Ross State University, Tarleton State University and Vernon College in the newly-formed Lone Star Region.
The rodeo will feature more than 500 contestant runs.
Concerts are scheduled to follow each of the rodeo performances. Sonny Burgess will perform Friday night and the Rowdy Decker Band on Saturday.
Sponsorships are also being offered starting at $300.
