The Cowboy Lifestyle Network, Ak-Chin Indian Community and Earnhardt Auto Road Team dusted off their boots and traveled up north to Flagstaff, Arizona for the very first Flagstaff Pro Rodeo Marshall W. Knoles Memorial Arena.

It has been 5 whole years since there’s been a rodeo in Flagstaff. In fact, since February of 2013, the Flagstaff Pro Rodeo Board has been working tirelessly towards getting the PRCA & WPRA sanctioned rodeo up and running.

Many are unaware of how rodeo organizations and boards operate, but it takes countless hours of dedication and hard work to even think about putting a rodeo on.

More importantly, it is imperative that we all help Protect Our West any way we possibly can through Wildland Fire Prevention so that Flagstaff can see another rodeo in 2015.
Meanwhile, Coors Banquet is giving 25 cents for every case of Coors Banquet beer sold in the select Western states.

All proceeds is going to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation with up to a quarter million dollars to help support the firefighters and their families.
