Indoor Spring Classic Rodeo has kicked off in Williams Lake

Williams Lake will be bustling this weekend, as contestants and rodeo enjoyers take in the Indoor Spring Classic Rodeo.

Performances began yesterday evening, with more rodeo action at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex Today (April 20th) and Sunday at 1:00pm.

One of the organizers of the event, Roy Call talks about what people can expect to see at the rodeo.

“We’ve taken out the calf roping, the steer wrestling and the team roping this year, and all we have is the bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, bull riding, and barrel racing. For the major events, there’s $5,000 added per event.” says Call.

“Then we have the wild horse race, junior steer riding, mini bull riding, and then the juniors and pee-wee barrels as well.”

Call added that with the replay board back and the entertainment, it’ll be an exciting weekend.

More information on the Indoor Spring Classic Rodeo can be found on Interior Rodeo Event Association’s website here.
