The future of our sport! Please share to help support the high school rodeo

🤠 SPONSORS NEEDED! 🤠

The Princeton High School Rodeo is coming up September 19th & 20th, 2026, and we are still looking for sponsors to help us put on an amazing weekend for our young rodeo athletes!

High school rodeo is about so much more than competition. It gives kids the opportunity to:

🐴 Build confidence, independence & responsibility
🤝 Learn sportsmanship, teamwork & respect
💪 Develop discipline, determination & a strong work ethic
🏆 Set goals and learn how to handle both success and disappointment
🌱 Build lifelong friendships and connections within the agricultural and rodeo community
🎓 Learn valuable life skills while working with horses, livestock and other athletes

These young competitors dedicate countless hours to practicing, caring for their animals, travelling and competing — and your sponsorship helps make those opportunities possible.

Whether you’re a local business, ranch, community organization or individual who wants to support youth, we would love to have you be part of the Princeton High School Rodeo!

📅 September 19 & 20, 2026
📍 Princeton, BC

We have sponsorship opportunities available at various levels, with opportunities to get your business or organization’s name in front of competitors, families and spectators.

Help us invest in the next generation of rodeo athletes and leaders! ❤️

📩 Message us for sponsorship information or to become a sponsor.

Thank you to all of the businesses and individuals who continue to support youth rodeo in our community!

What a fun August for Miss Keremeos Rodeo, Charlee Thomas! From Kars under the K to packing a sponsor flag in the Omak stampede, hot laps, the honour of carrying the US Marine Corps flag in Moses Lake, pushing cows and playing musical buckets with the other royalty! It will be tough to top!

Congratulations to Miss Keremeos Rodeo, Charlee Thomas being voted most sportsman like by Cactus Rose Barrel Productions!

MOST SPORTSMANLIKE🏅

I am aware I did not announce the recipient of the most sportsmanlike award donated by Diamond H Tack Inc. I didn’t have time to read through all the ballots before the awards on Sunday, and I wanted to say thank you to everybody who took the time to fill them out! It was wonderful to read about all the good that was being noticed around our races.

There are many people who deserve recognition for their willingness and positive attitudes at these events, but the 2026 Most Sportsmanlike award is in the name of Charlee Thomas!!
Charlee was not able to attend all of the races, however I think it was hard to miss the races she DID attend. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Charlee without a smile on her face, or not have a kind word or a hello for any child (or adult) who rode by her. Charlee went out of her way before her run to set third barrel in Keremeos until she had to get on her horse without being asked, and without recognition- but I noticed.
Charlee had to switch horses during the season, and still showed up with a positive attitude and smile on her face and from what I can tell, still had fun AND cheered on her fellow competitors.
Charlee- thank you for embodying what I envision Cactus Rose is about, and for your support this season! I hope to see your smiling face next year 💕
