ABOUT US

Our Association was formed in 1992 by several parents who wanted to give kids the opportunity to compete in rodeos. Today, under a governing Board of Directors, the Central Pennsylvania Youth Rodeo Association has grown to nearly 200 members. We are an association dedicated to promoting the success of children.

Children in age groups ranging from 5-18
(We also welcome children younger than five) compete in events such as:

barrel racing - pole bending

goat tying - dummy roping 

breakaway roping - tie-down roping

team roping - steer riding

chute dogging

Our young cowgirls and cowboys compete in 10 rodeos each season where

they accumulate points, trying to qualify for the Finals Rodeo which is held in August.

Currently, our rodeos are held in Annville, PA, and Wellsville, PA.
