Rodeo lovers from all over North Alabama will see plenty of rodeo action hit the dirt next month at the 41st annual Limestone Sheriff’s Rodeo. The popular event is May 19th and 20th in Athens.

Produced by the Lone Star Rodeo Co., the rodeo is at the Limestone Sheriff’s Rodeo Arena on Alabama 99, west of Athens. All proceeds are used to purchase equipment for the Limestone County Sheriff’s Office.

The rodeo brings a two-day spectacle of saddle bronc riders, precision barrel-racing, chuckwagon races, and laugh-hearty daredevil rodeo clowns from the International Professional Rodeo Association.

The annual Exceptional Needs Rodeo will take place May 19th from 10am to 1pm for individuals with special needs.

Gates re-open at 6pm with competition starting both nights at 8pm.

Grayson Carter & Son Contracting is sponsoring a $1,000 cash prize giveaway each night of the rodeo.

Daily ticket prices are $15 per adult in advance, $17 per adult at the gate, $10 for children 12 years and under,$12 for children at the gate.
