Richer Rodeo to Celebrate 10 Years
The annual Richer Rodeo will take place from August 9 to 11 at the Dawson Trail Park in Richer. “We’ve grow this community event every year and this year we are pulling out all the stops to make sure guests have a great
experience,” said Dan Guetre, a member of the rodeo committee since its inception in 2013. “We are extremely proud that we have kept the ticket prices unchanged for the past few years to ensure it was affordable for families.” Guetre added that the rodeo is now recognized as one of the largest events in the province. “Growth has come from many areas,” explained Guetre. “The uniqueness of combining a rodeo with a country fair has been a successful formula. Our volunteer base is always loyal and always growing. We work with our sponsors to give them value and to encourage them to be interactive with the spectators. And the
communities that surround Richer, they have embraced the event and added this to their list of annual pilgrimages.” This year’s rodeo will feature many of the popular attractions such as the Friday evening giant social, the Saturday live music social, the family fun zone, an expanded food court, reptiles, ponies, fun zone, magic, busking stage with live entertainment, a giant trade show plus some new features such as teen joisting!
