ELK'S YOUTH RODEO
45 WEST BRUNDAGE
SHERIDAN, WY
82801
THE TWENTYTH ANNUAL SHERIDAN, WYOMING,
ELK'S YOUTH RODEO was held on
August 25 and 26, 2012. The
rodeo's 26 events attracted contestants
from Alberta, Montana, Oregon, North
Dakota, Idaho, Colorado, South Dakota,
Nebraska, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming.
Three arenas, running at the same
time, were used to accommodate the 716
entrees each day. This is up from last
years 604 entries each day. We were
concerned that with the number of
ranchers either burned out or droughted
out we might be down on our number of
entries this year. We are very pleased
with the turn out.
Cash and awards of $68,000.00 were
presented to contestants ages 17 and
under.
These consisted of cash and
scholarships of $12,200.00 and awards
valued at $55,800.00.
T. J. McCauley, 17, from Redmond,
Oregon, won the Senior All Around, a
one-year lease of a new Ford truck,
provided by Fremont Motors, Sheridan,
WY.
T. J. McCauley also won the All Around
Youth award, a Jackson three horse slant
load trailer, provided by Prime Rate
Motors, Sheridan, WY.

received a $2,000.00 scholarship as the
All Around Youth Reserve Champion. All
Around Youth Reserve Runner-up receiving
a $1,000.00 scholarship was Brooke
Howell, 12, From Belle Fourche, South
Dakota.
The Senior Reserve Champion receiving a

The Sheridan Elk's Lodge #520 wishes to
thank all of the contestants and
sponsors for their help in making this
possible and is looking forward to
holding this event again next year.
