Cowboys and cowgirls will return to the High River Agricultural Society grounds this weekend for the annual Guy Weadick Rodeo.
Set for Friday, June 21 and Saturday, June 22, the event will see participants come from all over to compete in a variety of rodeo disciplines, everything from saddle bronc and barrel racing to steer wrestling and bull riding. Rodeo sessions start both days at 6:30 p.m.
Past events have featured competitors from near and far, from Aldersyde to Australia and Okotoks to Oklahoma.
In addition to all the action in the arena, the popular event will also feature a beer garden, live entertainment and food trucks.
The rodeo is named after the late George Guy Weadick, an American-Canadian cowboy, performer and promoter, best known as the founder of the Calgary Stampede. He was married to famed cowgirl Florence LaDue.
