Hoppy Horse Rodeo fundraiser set for June 19

NISSWA — The fourth annual Hoppy Horse Rodeo event will be noon June 19 at Nisswa Park.

Registration for the rodeo events starts at 11 a.m.

Suggested donation is $10 and includes entry into all four of the arena events (obstacle course, barrel race, pole bending and a straight race).

There are four age groups for each event: 5-7, 8-11, 12-15 and 16 and older.

Food will be available for purchase at the Community Center.

There will be a smaller arena for the younger children to bounce around on toy horses or bulls more their size. There will be some carnival games as well.

A silent auction will begin at noon and end shortly after the last arena event.

All proceeds will go to the American Cancer Society via Branden's Cancer Crusaders and Relay for Life.
