Presenting your 2012 PRCA California Circuit Year End Champions
After traveling up and down the State of California competing in many, if not all, of the prestigious rodeos within the PRCA California Circuit this past year, many of the top contestants met at the Antelope Valley Fairgrounds in Lancaster, CA, for the 2012 PRCA RAM California Circuit Finals Rodeo. Thousands of rodeo fans were on hand to watch their favorites compete over the course of the 3-day event. At the awards presentation ceremony, each Champion was presented with their Championship Buckle provided by our National Sponsor Montana Silversmiths (website). Each Champion was also presented with a beautiful, custom-made Corriente Trophy Saddle provided by Sponsors Western Pacific Roofing Corp, Palm Springs (website); Western Pacific Roofing Corp, Palmdale; Stone Roofing Co Inc. (website), Azusa; and American Services of CA in Dublin and Sacramento (website). (Photographs by Liz Breault, Official Photographer of the Showdown Rodeo).
