The Silver Spurs Riding Club’s best stock — and some of pro rodeo’s best riders and racers — will be on display Oct. 7 at the annual Boots, Bulls and Barrels rodeo. PHOTO/SILVER SPURS RIDING CLUB
Ah, October … it’s the month of the start of fall weather, pumpkin spice latte … ... And dirt in the rodeo ring at the Silver Spurs Arena!
Get ready for Boots, Bulls, and Barrels, the one-night-only event that features tournament-style competition in two of the fastest and fan-friendliest events — bull riding and barrel racing.
On Saturday, Oct. 7, pro cowboys and cowgirls will compete for bragging rights — and some cold hard cash. Watch the guys compete in multiple bull riding sets against the bulls — the baddest, meanest stock the Silver Spurs Riding Club can rind and raise — to try to hang until the eight-second buzzer sounds. The barrel racers will run fast out of the gate and complete “lady-alady” against the clock and one another to win prize money.
Come for the fast rodeo action, and stay to meet Silver Spurs Rodeo new Big Boss Clifton Chapman and the Miss Silver Spurs Court.
As with any Spurs’ rodeo, there’s a good cause: Boots, Bulls, and Barrels benefits the Silver Spurs Riding Club’s annual scholarship fund, with those scholarships given to graduating Osceola County seniors in the amount of $2,000 each.
The action starts at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $20 to $25 for adults, 10 and under are free with paying adult. Get them at www. silverspursrodeo.com or for more information, call 407-67-RODEO (407-6776336).
