Last evening, I decided to head over to the El Rancho Hotel & Motel for some chicken enchiladas. Before going into the restaurant, I spotted some Gallup Visitor's Guide booklets on the front desk. Since they were free, I took one and headed over to the restaurant.
Inside the guide, is a page of 2023 rodeo events to be held at Red Rock Park. The list is not complete as it doesn't include surrounding areas that also hold rodeos. While there, I added the rodeos to my phone's calendar.
I did some digging this morning and added a few more. This blog posting will be updated when more information is available.
To me, rodeo season is the best time of the year to live in the Gallup, New Mexico area.
