Sunparlour Rodeo
ABOVE: A crowd favourite for the 12th annual Sun Parlour Rodeo was mutton busting, open to all youths weighing in under a specific limit. In similar fashion to bronco riding, youths ride atop a sheep for a targeted eight seconds. Pictured here is Marissa Adams just after launching from the chute. The event was won by Jessica Reaume, the only competitor to reach the eight-second mark on the Saturday, Aug. 3 edition of the rodeo. AT RIGHT: Breakaway roping was one of many popular events during the 12th annual Sun Parlour Rodeo, held Saturday, Aug. 3 and Sunday, Aug. 4 at Easy Walking Stables in Kingsville. Each year’s rodeo, part of the Rawhide Rodeo Tour, is organized by the Pavao family. Proceeds raised through ticket sales and sponsorship support benefit W.E. Care For Kids and in past years, have been used to purchase equipment for Leamington District Memorial Hospital. Backed by ideal weather conditions, this year’s rodeo was deemed a tremendous success. Organizers estimated that the two-day fundraiser had the potential to hit the $200,000 mark this year. (SUN Photos)
