“We are moving to a covered arena this year,” Pastor Dale Lee said. “It’s going to be a good rodeo.”

Lee added the event is open to the public and family friendly.

“Registration for the event ends today [Tuesday], so we don’t know how many participants at this time,” Lee said.

Price for adults is $10 and for kids 12 and under, tickets are $5.
