On August 4, the Rowell Ranch Jr. Rodeo held its 65th Annual rodeo. More than 200 contestants from ages 1-19 years old competed from all over Northern California. Rodeo events kicked off with the rough stock event followed by the 10th Annual Aaron Jennings Memorial Chute Dogging and Carpet Race. The event honors the fun-loving spirit of Jennings as a local rodeo contestant and Future Farmers of America member who passed away in 2013.
"Thank you to all of our sponsors who made the Junior Rodeo possible, our rodeo photographer Darrell Lavin and especially to the volunteers for giving their time all weekend. We are already planning for the 2024 rodeo and are committed to continuing rodeo in the Bay Area. As the famous Harry Rowell said, 'Here's a Go!'" said Rowell Ranch Jr. Rodeo president Joey Welliver.
