MINI BULLZ & MUTTON BUSTIN’
Let's talk about the MINI BULLZ - the exciting new bull riding event coming to the Dutch Festival! Great Frontier Bull Riding Company, Inc. will be bringing in MINI BULLS - these are full grown, adult bulls, but MINI in size - for a FULL bull riding event, complete with rodeo clown and announcers and all! There will be three groups - P*e Wees, Juniors, and Seniors. This event will have all the same knock down, drag out, can't miss entertainment as the "big boy" bulls, but will just be in a miniature size! If you love the Bull Riding event that is always on Friday night, make sure to warm up with the Mini Bullz on Thursday night! Tickets for this event are $10 at the gate (no pre-sales) with 5 and under getting in FREE!
And here is a SHOUT OUT to all those mutton busters! We are doing things a bit differently this year!
We will **START OFF** the mutton bustin ‘ on **THURSDAY NIGHT**! Buy a ticket when you get inside the gate for the MINI BULLZ riding event or hit up an FFA student to get your tickets beforehand.
Kids must be 75 pounds or less. There is not a MINIMUM AGE, but keep in mind the very small children may not be allowed to ride for safety reasons. Remember, buying a ticket is buying a CHANCE to ride, as we can only have as many riders as there are sheep. Tickets will be one for $5 or three for $10. Riders will be drawn from the total tickets sold. The good news is there are a LOT more sheep this year!
The top TEN mutton busters will go on to compete during the Bull Riding Event on FRIDAY NIGHT! Of those, the top three will get TROPHIES!
This is an FFA fundraiser and the FFA kids will be set up Thursday night and ready to give you all the details!
