Special to Ropers Sports News

California High School Rodeo holds this invitational rodeo every year as a preview of the state finals. The top 3 in each event in each district compete for prizes and the coveted All Around prize. For the past 16 years, Craig Williams, past CHSRA parent, produces this fun event that is sponsored by the Jackson Rancheria and Casino. Their donation and the support of other community organizations and businesses are how this event has been successful for so long. American Legion Ambulance donates the stand by ambulance service. West Coast Footing joined the team this year and provided excellently prepared ground and the Amador County Fairgrounds also makes the fairgrounds affordable.

CHSRA is over 40 years old now and working hard to keep rodeo alive for the next generation. With the help of some great major sponsors the job is getting easier: Les Schwab Tires, Cactus Ropes, Saddlery, Tack and Gear, Heel-O-Matic, Resistol Hats, Platinum Performance, Ropers Sports News, and Ariat. All these great companies have joined together to support the students of high school rodeo.

CHSRA will host our State Finals Rodeo June 10-15 in Bishop, California. We wish all the competitors the best of luck in their final rodeos before the Finals and we’ll see you all in Inyo County soon enough!
