The Weather Got Us... Again! 🌧️🚜

Due to the significant amount of rain and saturated ground conditions, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our Father's Day Antique Tractor Pull & DV Ag Farm Safety Day.

Unfortunately the grounds are simply too wet to safely host the event.

But don't worry—we'll be back!

We are already working on securing a new date and look forward to bringing this great family event to Drayton Valley later this season.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. We can't wait to see everyone when conditions improve!

Stay tuned to our page for the new event date. 🚜🌾

🚨 TEAM AUCTIONS DV NIGHT RODEO POSTPONED 🚨

Due to the current weather conditions and the significant rainfall expected, we have made the decision to postpone this week's Team Auctions DV Night Rodeo.

Our team inspected the arena grounds today, and with the forecasted weather, we feel this is the safest decision for our contestants, livestock, volunteers, and spectators.

To make up for the postponed event, our July 2 rodeo will now be run as a double header, giving competitors the opportunity to compete for both performances.

Contestants have two options:
✔️ Carry their entry forward to the rescheduled performance.
✔️ Request a full reimbursement of their entry fees.

We know this is disappointing, but the condition of the arena is something we won't compromise on. We appreciate everyone's understanding and continued support.

We look forward to bringing you an even bigger and better night of rodeo on July 2. See you then! 🤠🐂

📣 Contestant Reminder

Entries for both performances on July 2 will be available through the regular entry process.

🗓 Online entries open: Thursday, June 25 and remain open until Saturday, June 27.

📞 Phone entries: Friday, June 26
780-236-4564

If you were already entered in the postponed rodeo, your entry can be carried forward or refunded. Please notify us through [email protected]. New entries are welcome through the regular entry process.

We can't wait to see everyone on July 2 for an action-packed double-header night of rodeo! 🤠

Important Update – Lariat Gymkhana Entries

While day-of entries are convenient for competitors, they make it very difficult for our volunteer committee to properly plan staffing, equipment, arena preparation, and event setup.

Due to the weather conditions this past week, we have had to postpone today’s gymkhana. To make up for the missed event, our next gymkhana will be run as a Double Header.

Moving forward, the committee has implemented a new entry policy:

✅ A minimum of 15 pre-entries must be received for a gymkhana to proceed.

If we do not reach 15 pre-entries by the entry deadline, the event will be postponed and combined with a future date.

This policy helps ensure that our volunteers’ time, facility preparation, and event expenses are justified while allowing us to continue offering a quality gymkhana series.

We appreciate everyone’s understanding and support as we work to build a strong and sustainable club. We encourage all competitors to pre-enter and help us keep these events running!

Thank you,
Lariat Gymkhana Club CommitteeLariat Gymkhana Club
