The ĐÇżŐ´«Ă˝ Rodeo is in full swing, with plenty of action still ahead through Saturday at the Mount Pleasant Rodeo Association Arena.
Friday’s competition kicks off with slack events — including Tie Down Roping, Ladies Breakaway Roping, Steer Wrestling, Goat Tying, and Team Roping — beginning at 9 a.m. The excitement continues Friday night at 7 p.m. with a full rodeo performance featuring both timed events and rough stock.
Saturday’s slack rounds will start at 10 a.m., followed by the final performance that evening at 7 p.m.. Each night’s performance will also feature the always-entertaining Calf Dressing and Costume Contest, where NTCC student, faculty, and staff teams compete for prizes — and plenty of laughs — as they race to dress their calves in the arena.
“This event is a great chance for our students and the community to come together for some friendly competition and a true rodeo experience,” said Assistant Athletic Director Justin Hargrove.
Admission is free for NTCC students and employees with a Hometown Tickets pass. For more information, contact Justin Hargrove at jhargrove@ntcc.edu or 903-434-8285.
