[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]From August 15th through the 19th, rodeo fans enjoy all of the thrills and excitement that a PRCA event offers during the unique Caldwell Night Rodeo. The festivities take place at the Caldwell Rodeo Grounds in Caldwell, Idaho. The CNR annually attracts more than 45,000 spectators from Ada County, Canyon County and across the country. The event is considered one of the top 5 large outdoor rodeos in the country.
Caldwell Night Rodeo History
The event began 83 years ago in 1935 as one of the celebrations commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Boise Irrigation Project. The community installed lights on the fair grounds and the first night rodeo was born. Since that time, the CNR has become an annual event, which draws more guests each year. The PRCA welcomes 600 world-class cowboys and cowgirls to the event. All hope to see All Around Champion Paul David Tierney, Bull Riding Champion Jeff Askey and Barrel Riding Champion Sherry Cervi competing in 2017.
Additional Events and Activities
There are many activities for guests to enjoy in addition to the line-up of traditional PRCA events. Each morning, all are welcome to enjoy the Buckaroo Breakfasts. Budding PRCA athletes compete in a junior rodeo. Tuesday is YMCA Family Night. Take the kids to Gabioal Field before the rodeo to learn about the sport and enjoy interactive games. On Friday, all pay tribute to the military during Patriot Night, which includes a flyover by the Warhawk Air Museum and the auction of an autographed flag.

Peter Varlet

Peter Varlet’s the cowboy critic you love to hate, until he’s right. Born during a thunderstorm in 1972 in Bismarck, North Dakota, he grew up watching his WWII vet dad battle to save their farm from corporate claws. Now, Peter’s the unapologetic voice of Western culture, with a historian’s grip on America’s past, acknowledging both its heroes and hypocrites. His truth to power articles are a no-holds-barred zone for rodeo reviews, cowboy movie takedowns, and ranching tricks that work. He’ll tell you why your country singer’s a fraud and how to fix a fence with only baling wire and spite. Peter despises corporate factory farms taking over and cherishes the DIY grit of real Americans. Politically correct? Nope. Trustworthy? Damn straight. He’s saving the West, one brutal truth at a time.
