Evergreen Rodeo

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. Parents, if you have not already, please complete and return the liability waiver form or bring it with you at 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.

According to PRCA arena requirements and for safety purposes, all contestants must wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and sturdy shoes or boots. For their safety, busters must wear long-sleeved shirts, pants, and hiking boots/cowboy boots.

Protective vests and helmets will be provided. We have helmets and vests for the kids. If the child prefers to wear their own hockey helmet with full cage, that is fine. Feel free to bring your own hockey helmet with full face cage if you prefer.

No spurs are allowed.

One parent will be allowed into the arena with each contestant. Parents who wish to enter the arena should wear sturdy shoes or boots/hiking boots.

No food, drink or siblings are allowed in the arena. Please print and familiarize yourself with our Mutton Bustin’ Guidelines.

We will gear up at the Mutton Bustin booth and walk to the arena as a group. We launch from the roping chutes.

After each child rides, rodeo royalty will pick the child up, dust them off and bring them to the fence. After all kids have ridden, they line up to get ribbons, take a bow, throw kisses and enjoy the applause.
