Giddy Up, Partners: The Rodeo Returns Friday Night

Giddy up young cowboys and cowgirls: tonight is opening night of the World Of Life Rodeo.

For many families, this is a rite of the summer season, as the ring in Potterville comes to life with magnificent horses and their riders, carving up the dust in a dazzling display of skill and determination. There’s barrel racing, a pony express relay, goat tying and steer riding, just to name a few of the main show acts which begin at 8pm

At 7 pm there’s a ton of action activities for the kids: horse rides, face painting, a bounce house, fort playground and food and music. For more information, click here.
