In 2014, the Clovis Rodeo not only celebrated their 100th year, but they were also inducted into the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame! Moving into their new century, Clovis, their surrounding communities, and rodeo fans look forward with great anticipation to the 101st Annual Clovis Rodeo - April 24-26, 2015!
The Clovis Rodeo, which is part of the PRCA California Circuit, promises non-stop rodeo action in their 101st year! Concerts, a parade, a blood drive, mutton bustin, and so many more activities leading up to, and during the rodeo, are planned for all. For official event information, please visit the Clovis Rodeo website and their Facebook.
It is very fitting since April is "Volunteer Appreciation Month, that three (3) long-time Clovis Rodeo volunteers will serve as Grand Marshals in the Clovis Rodeo Parade. Mr. Jim Call, Mr. Orville Hefley, and Mr. Bob Kennedy have been working together for the past 25 years as volunteers for the Clovis Rodeo. Congratulations and thank you gentlemen for all you do. To learn more about the Clovis Rodeo Parade and its Grand Marshals, please visit ( link ).
Don't forget - Saturday's performance is "Salute to Military" and Sunday's performance is Tough Enough To Wear Pink!
The PRCA California Circuit would like to take this opportunity to thank the Clovis Rodeo for their support and sponsorship of the 2014 RAM PRCA California Circuit Finals Rodeo - "Thank You"!!
