[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]While Washington State may not be known as a hotbed for rodeos by many people, smart cowboys and cowgirls in the Pacific Northwest know better. Thus, from August 9-12, rodeo fans from all over the state will converge on the 85th Annual PRCA Omak Stampede.
To make sure fans are always on the edge of their seats, the PRCA Omak Stampede will have plenty of great events, which will include:
World Famous Suicide Race
And speaking of thrills and spills, it doesn’t get any better than the annual World Famous Suicide Race. Known throughout the rodeo world as perhaps the most exciting event of its kind, it’s been virtually unchanged since its introduction in 1935. Except for a few modern safety precautions, the race involves competitors starting just short of a sandy bluff near the Okanogan River. From there, they ride their horses 225 feet down the bluff, swim across the river, then make a 500-yard mad dash to the finish line, which is located near the center of the rodeo arena.
And to make the PRCA Omak Stampede even more exciting, there are lots of other special events fans can enjoy. Some of the most popular include:
