“Pink My Steer” Update
by chamber2387 ~ June 29, 2009
The Mobridge Rodeo Association is busy finalizing plans for this year’s Sitting Bull Stampede. Rides are starting to show up for the carnival, parade floats are being built, and the rodeo grounds are getting in tip top shape for the 7:30 nightly shows on July 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.
Don’t forget, on the night of the 2nd (kids night) the first 300 kids that cross the gates get free cowboy hats courtesy of the Dakota Radio Group. Also the night of the 2nd, there will be face painting by the Mobridge-Pollock Girls basketball team, and kids will be able to get their picture taken with the clowns and contestants prior to the rodeo.
The night of the 3rd, “tough enough to wear pink” night, there will be a balloon release, and the new event, “pink my steer.” Come see area cowboys and not so cowboys participate in this event that promises to be exciting!! Contestants will try to get a pair of pink boxers on the hind end of a 450-550 pound steer…all for your entertainment!!
As always, there will be a fireworks show the night of the fourth, which always entertains the kids and the kids at heart! See you in Mobridge over the 4th of July weekend!
