ROdeo Events
GRAND ENTRY Most rodeos begin with a traditional Grand Entry, and the Word of Life Rodeo is no exception. This is a time to introduce our contestants and their horses to the crowd. Horses who carry a flag are considered especially well-trained, and the rider will also be more experienced. Grab your camera and cheer them on as they pass by! FLAG RELAY This event pays tribute to one of the fondest memories of the Wild West, the Pony Express. It is a fast-paced event that will pit tonight’s two teams against each other as well as rider vs. rider simultaneously. The object is to pick up or drop off their flag in the can at the other end and then hand off or take the flag from the other rider. BARREL RACING Barrel Racing is an event you will see in every major rodeo across the U.S. An event for cowgirls only, the riders will take turns running the course in a clover leaf pattern, trying to get as close to the barrels as possible without knocking them over. In the event a barrel falls or the pattern is broken, a disqualification or penalty will be awarded. Tonight, we’ll do two rounds for separate skill levels. ARENA RUN Let's see who has the fastest horse on The Ranch! This is a timed racing event where riders zoom around the arena in hopes of being the fastest.
