Welcome to the 36th Annual Los Fresnos Rodeo, the “Biggest Little Rodeo in Texas”. On behalf of the Los Fresnos Rodeo Committee, I would like to thank all of our sponsors, who, without their generous support, would not have allowed us to put on this great event.
Thank You!
What a great rodeo we had last year for the 35th Annual Los Fresnos Rodeo. We had great weather and fantastic crowds. The cowboys and cowgirls tell us the energy from our rodeo fans is the best in all of Texas, and they really get pumped up about it. Thank you, Los Fresnos Rodeo Fans. Our Midway area was full, and there was a huge participation of youth showing animals and projects at the Cameron County Fair and Livestock Show. Elida Reyna, as part of her farewell tour, put on a great concert, and Kolby Cooper brought some new sound to the rodeo.
Stace Smith Pro Rodeo, 11-time National Finals Rodeo Stock Contractor of the Year, is back with the best stock in PRCA. Having the best bulls and broncs brings the best PRCA cowboys.
Be on the lookout for some of the cowboys and cowgirls who competed at the National Finals Rodeo as they try to rack up points for this year. The voice of the Los Fresnos Rodeo, TC Long, who announces at the Texas Circuit Finals, and our sound man, Will Morehead, are some of the best in PRCA and are back to keep the excitement going during the rodeo. Your competition bullfighting teams, brought to you by Jim McClain and Allen Nelson, are exciting to see as they protect the cowboys. Root for your favorite Bull Fighting Team. “Backflip”, Johnny Dudley, the “Man In Can” rodeo clown, will be entertaining you and will also be giving the bullfighters a hand during the bull rides.
New this year, we are having a Thursday Kick-Off Concert where we are bringing one of the hottest rising country artists, Braxton Keith. This will certainly be an electrifying event. For our Friday Concert, Anne Bosko will be headlining. She is a rising country artist with unstoppable energy that you all will love. For the Saturday concert, Randall King, a West Texas native and self-described “Old Soul,” will be headlining, bringing today’s traditional country music, another spectacular event to our rodeo.
Be sure to visit the rodeo Midway, which has free, family-friendly entertainment. We have several entertainment acts this year that are fun and exciting. Please take time to see these free acts before and after the rodeo. Also, be sure to visit the Rodeo Market Place, where you can find items from various vendors and stroll over to the Midway Music Tent, where you will hear some great local bands, and for some excitement and thrills, visit the Heart of America Carnival. Don’t forget the Cameron County Fair & Live Show. Stop by and see the kids show their animals and projects.
I would like to give a huge shout-out to our Los Fresnos Rodeo Committee. These volunteers work tirelessly throughout the year to bring you this great event.
And as we say, “It’s Rodeo Time!”
