Redding Rodeo: A Glimpse into the Past

Inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in 2016, the Redding Rodeo Committee is dedicated to delivering top-notch professional rodeo action while honoring Northern California’s rich ranching and agricultural heritage. The Redding Rodeo traces its origins to local legend Sheriff John Balma. After returning from military service in the 1940s, Balma, along with his associates, sought to celebrate their beloved community. As a member of the sheriff’s posse and eventual Chief of Police, Balma, alongside many other law enforcement officers, worked tirelessly to establish the 6 Pac Rodeo group, which comprises six major rodeos in California, including the Redding Rodeo!
