Community - It is what it is all about!  Five days of festivities, including a cattle drive - which always brings out the the entire community, will culminate on Saturday and Sunday (May 23 & 24, 2015), at the Cotton Rosser Arena, with the 82nd Annual Marysville Stampede - A PRCA California Circuit Rodeo.  Many of the top PRCA Cowboys and WPRA Cowgirls will be ready to rope and ride!

Saturday's performance is Tough Enough To Wear Pink; Sunday's performance is dedicated to Military Appreciation!  For all event information, please visit the Marysville Stampede website and Facebook.  Don't forget, if you need something pink to wear for TETWP or something Red/White/Blue, be sure to visit Cotton's Cowboy Corral right there in Marysville ( Facebook ).

On Saturday and Sunday, rodeo goers will have the opportunity to see the Express Clydesdales ( website / Facebook).  These exquisite Clydesdales are very unique.  All are black in color with four white stocking feet, a blaze of white on the face and a black mane and tail. They have "Feathering" above the hooves. This long hair covering their ankles makes this breed easily recognizable and it is thought the feather was developed during the first breedings with the Fleming and English Breeds.
