The towns of Eastend and Shaunavon joined forces this past weekend to present the Investors Group Little Britches Rodeo out at the Ron Winquist Arena at Shaunavon.

On Saturday August 19th it was the Shaunavon part of the Rodeo and then on Sunday the 20th, the Eastend portion.

Marla Smith is the Secretary/Treasurer for the Rodeo. She says they had a really good turn out of competitors ages eighteen years and under, despite the windy conditions.

"The first day was Shaunavon and they had 70 kids enter the rodeo and out of those 70 we had 61 that were new members. And the second day we roughly had about the same amount of contestants, but we had 4 new members sign memberships that day."

They would like to thank all their sponsors as well as the people who gave their time and effort to make the weekend a success.

The Rodeo Finals happen in Val Marie on September 17th.
