MUTTON BUSTIN’ REQUIREMENTS

Registration opens April 1st and goes fast so make sure to mark your calendar

Mutton Busters must be between the ages of 5 to 7 years old and weigh less than 55 pounds on the day of the ride. The entry fee is $20, payable through PayPal. Each participant will receive a large ribbon and fun promotional items donated by our sponsors.

All parents and family members need to buy a ticket to the rodeo – even if your child is riding before the rodeo. Mutton Busters get in free, and so do all children under 5.

RULES

Contestants and parents/guardians should arrive at the rodeo grounds and check in with the Mutton Bustin’ coordinator at least one hour prior to the Rodeo. The Mutton Bustin’ check-in table is near the main ticket booth on the west end of the grounds. Please look for us there.

The Mutton Bustin’ Contestant Release Form must have been signed and uploaded by a parent or guardian before you check-in.

Failure to check in as instructed with a completed release form will result in forfeiture of the child’s spot to ride and entry fee. One parent will be allowed into the arena with each contestant

DRESS CODE

According to PRCA arena requirements and for safety purposes, all contestants must wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and sturdy shoes or boots. No spurs are allowed. Protective vests and helmets will be provided. If the child prefers to wear their own hockey helmet with full cage, that is fine. Parents who wish to enter the arena should wear sturdy shoes. Please print and familiarize yourself with our Mutton Bustin’ Guidelines.

Performances

There are four Mutton Bustin’ events scheduled on Rodeo Weekend. Space is limited and is usually full before rodeo weekend, so no day-of registration is available. As registration fills up, performances will be removed from the registration options.
