All eyes on NeHSR Finals in Valentine, NeBRASKA

The Grandstands at the Cherry County Fairgounds were full of spectators watching the contestants have a go for a spot at the National Finals, in Rock Springs, WY, July 13-19. FromThursday,June12through the finals, Saturday, June 14, so many competitors made the journey to the fairgrounds. Rigs were lined up along the trees on the south side, packed in like sardines! It was a bonafied campground with and without electrical hookups, water was hauled in for the horses and the arena. The athletes, families, guests, even the horses, showed true sportsmanship when 2.53 inches of rain, hail, and strong winds pelted them, Thursday, early evening. Turning lemons into lemonade, several of the youth were playing in the deep puddles of water left behind, without a care in the world. Some of the horses were shrouded with their own rain jackets for protection. The community was happy to host the event. A huge round of thanks to the powers that be, who took the time, effort, and got the event booked, and the fairgrounds ready for the Nebraska High School Rodeo Finals - 2025 Valentine, Nebraska.
