What makes the PRCA Lakeside Rodeo so special to so many is its long tradition. Hosted by the non-profit El Capitan Stadium for more than 50 years, it’s been one of the premier fundraising activities in the local area for decades. With the proceeds from the event going to various organizations and activities related to the youth of Lakeside, it’s one rodeo that has made a tremendous difference in the lives of others.
With ticket prices as low as $5, it’s no wonder this PRCA Pro Rodeo is considered some of the best family fun in Lakeside. As any cowboy or cowgirl can attest, the events in this competition are action-packed year after year. A number of great competitions will be part of the rodeo, including:
–Bull Riding
–Calf Roping

In addition to fans getting to see the best cowboys and cowgirls showcase their skills in these and other events, they will also be treated to having one of the best rodeo announcers in the business calling the action. Don Jesser, long a favorite of competitors and spectators, will again be at the helm of the event as he uses his unique style to give everyone a real taste of the excitement associated with each event.
What makes this pro rodeo so important for each cowboy and cowgirl competing in the various events is the chance to qualify for the Wrangler National Finals, which will be held later on in Las Vegas. With each event holding the key to qualifying for the big event in Vegas, fans are guaranteed to experience some of the best rodeo action anywhere in the United States by attending this competition. Whether it’s watching some steer wrestling or the incredible skills associated with team roping, the 52nd Annual PRCA Lakeside Rodeo is sure to deliver plenty of thrills and excitement.
