The Li’l Wrangler Youth Rodeo Series wrapped up it finals on Aug. 14. This was the 6th year that the rodeo series has run in Watford City. The series consists of five rodeos throughout the summer bringing kids ranging from ages 1 yr old-8th grade. This season there were 91 kids coming from as far away as Bismarck and Velva.
It is a fun way to watch the kids learn more about the sport of rodeo and progress with their horses throughout the summer. Thanks to the community’s continued support of the program, over $14,000 in buckles and prizes was given away this year.
