Home to the oldest ranch rodeo in Canada, the Cowboy Show is a two-day affair that was held June 18-19 in Pincher Creek.
The show expanded a few years ago and includes the Ranch Rodeo Cowboys Association and Western States Ranch Rodeo Association approved Ranch Bronc Riding which saw a $3,000 payout. It was open to 15 entries with the top five in the short go, and it was won by Dustin Sippola ($1,500). Kendall Millar came in second ($1,000), 3rd/4th was split between Joe Roberson ($250) and Wacey Marr ($250), and Riley Harvie finished fifth.
Saturday saw competition in working ranch horse, the bronc riding, and a long loop competition. Sunday opened with a timed event roping, then the main event, the ranch rodeo.
