Rodeo News

Hi I am Kjerstin from Neutral Hills Rodeo Wranglers
reporting the Rodeo in Oyen. This rodeo took place on July 12,
2009.

When the Rodeo Clown went to jump through the hope of
fire when his bike went of course and went right in the ring of
fire. Than the Emergency Resonance went into the ring to get the
Rodeo Clown and when they got him. Good thing for the fire
resistant clothing that the Rodeo Clown was wearing when he
went into the fire. The quickly got him onto a stretcher and
rushed him to the nearest hospital. That is when they said that
he had a broken his right leg and arm from crashing into the bull
shoots.

Then they had the bull riding next and that was bad the 1st
on out got a bull named Mister Eats A Lot and the rider got on to
him and they let him out and he was a mean bull and he got his
rider off in 4.5 seconds. He was so mean the rider had to jump
the fence and get away from the bull. The funny thing was that
the bull rider landed on a person and a child. Than the next bull
was named The Worst Meany Ever and his named suited him
because he was mean the rider got onto him and they let him out
of the shots and he got his rider off in like 3 seconds, and than
tried to kill everything in his way. They had to bring out the 2
horses and cowboys to rope him and bring him out and he took
after one of the rodeo clown, which was funny.

Than they started to do Barrel Racing and the first one
went out and when they went around the first barrel the horse
slipped and than fell and landed on the rider’s ankle and than got
up and ran away. It took 5 people to catch the horse that took
off. Than the 5th rider and horse went out and got a fast time of
13.5 seconds that to me and everyone else there is very fast and
that is because it is a small arena. Than the last horse and rider
of 25 horses and riders went and they got the fastest time there
was it was a time of 11.2 seconds.

At the ending they enounced the winners for the Queen and
Princesses. That was interesting because I knew 2 of the 3 that
won the Queen and Princesses. The Queen Was Annemarie White
witch is from my 4-H club Neutral Hills 4-H Rodeo Wranglers. The
Princess that I knew was Kelsey Simpson, she is also from my
4-H club. They Rodeo around the Arena about 10 times well we
said the Cowboys Prayer, O’ Canada, and a lot more things.
At the end of this Rodeo for entertainment they had another
clown there and he tried the hop of fire and got though it safely.
Than they had a miniature bull there and everyone went to get
their photos token with the bull. They had to wear a cowboy hat,
chest pad and chaps. It was a good thing because there was a
lot of little kids that wanted to try to ride a bucking bull. The cool
part was that when you got your picture token you had to put
your hand up in the air.

This was such a good Rodeo but a bit scary with all the
accidents through out the Rodeo. Everyone did an awesome job
with the Rodeo. But most Canadians made the top ten.
