LAKEPORT – The Lake County Rodeo returns next month for its 81st annual event.
The rodeo will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, July 9, and Saturday, July 10, at the Lake County Fairgrounds, 401 Martin St. in Lakeport.
On Saturday, July 10, the Lake County Rodeo Parade – formerly the All Horse Parade – will commence at 11 a.m. at the baseball fields at the fairgrounds in Lakeport, traveling on Martin to Main Street, north on Main Street to Ninth Street, and returning on Main and then to the fairgrounds.
This year the parade will feature antique tractors and farm equipment, plus a pet parade, in addition to many equestrian entries.
Applications for the parade are available at the Lake County Chamber of Commerce in Lakeport, 707-263-5092, CJS Ranch Supply in Middletown and Marie’s Feed in Clearlake.
This is a CSHA sanctioned parade and all CSHA (California State Horsemen’s Association) members will receive points for participating.
The parade is open to all equestrians, not just CSHA members.
Prizes will be awarded immediately following the parade and there will be a raffle for the participants.
Lonne Sloan is the chair of the parade and she has many years experience of organizing parades and knows horses, so she is the perfect person for the job. Sloan is ably assisted by Kirsten Spraktes and Teresa Harborth.
The Rodeo Association wishes to thank Lonne Sloan, CSHA judge Kim Cipro and all the volunteers for bringing this important piece of rodeo tradition to this 81st Annual Lake County Rodeo.
Sloan can be reached at 707-995-2515 or 707-349-0820.
