“This year we are full steam ahead we’ve got four days of campdrafting, rodeo events and races to enjoy,” she said.
“I won’t lie it’s a big job but we are really excited to be hosting again this year.
“Our positive feedback shows in our competitors and how many nominations, we have had a massive number of nominations and that is why we have had to extend the rodeo.”
There is also a special dash for cash costume footrace this year during the race day on Saturday along with fashions on the field.
