A week after the Gallup Lions Club Rodeo, the Best of the Best Rodeo will be held at Red Rock Park June 22-25, 2022.

According to their website:

Join us in Gallup, New Mexico at Red Rock Park from Wednesday, June 22, through Saturday, June 25, 2022, as America’s top junior high and high school rodeo athletes compete for big cash payouts and prizes. The Best of the Best Timed Event Rodeo offers eight timed events, including barrel racing, pole bending, breakaway roping, tie-down roping, team roping, and steer wrestling. In addition, there will be a special parent-contestant team roping and ribbon roping competition. 

If you have never been to a rodeo before, much less ones with junior high and high school riders, you've missed out on some great entertainment, and this one is free!
