The result was record attendance at one of the top 5 rodeos in the country.
Idaho’s fastest, wildest ride is from June 16th to June 20th. Before we get to the changes, one of the most traditional family friendly events is the Buckaroo Breakfast beginning on Monday and Tuesday before the rodeo begins.
