Our team is excited to welcome you and your family & friends to the second annual Newton County Rodeo. Our goal is to boost agricultural awareness & literacy, benefit our local FFA and 4-H chapters, give back to our community & stakeholders, and fundraise for facility growth.
Come enjoy a weekend of fun and help us ensure the expansion of our multi-purpose facility in order to (1) meet the evolving needs of local youth organizations, and (2) continue providing low cost, state-of-the-art venue services to students for agricultural education.

New for 2024 - Behind the Chutes Tour!
This exclusive experience includes a 30 minute walking tour of the rodeo arena, a look back into the history of rodeo, explanation of rodeo events and rules, up close and personal views of animal athletes, photo ops, and a reserved section of seating.
The tour will start promptly at 6:30pm. Tour attendees will get an inside look at the daily life of the animal and human athletes competing in the rodeo, hear some of their stories, get a closer look at the equipment used in each event, and have an opportunity to grow their love of the sport of rodeo by learning more about our lifestyle.
The tour will be led by Rachel Derner, a former Miss Rodeo Wyoming, and a lifelong advocate for rodeo and the western lifestyle. Rachel has guided over 100,000 people on these tours, from the World’s Largest Outdoor Rodeo in Cheyenne, Wyoming, to the sunny south Florida Okeechobee Cattlemen's Rodeo, and she looks forward to meeting you!
