Our 2024 Riders:
Benjamin Morrish
FUNDRAISER
Alberta Cancer Foundation
The way I see it, when I look back at this one year from now, there is a 100% chance that I will regret NOT doing it, and probably only a 60% chance that I regret DOING it. Now, I am no statistician, but I will take my chances.
Dan Richards
"Dirty Dog Dan"
FUNDRAISER
Alberta Children's Hospital
Being Little Britches, Alberta High School Rodeo and Foothills Cowboys Association (FCA) Alumni and the dad of a rough stock cowboy I am most definitely not short on pointers so at 56 I can talk the talk, but can I walk the walk?? PS... I take a size Medium Buckle!!
Megan Pierson
"Mighty Meg"
FUNDRAISER

She can ride a mechanical bull, but can she ride a real bull? Let’s find out! She be documenting her training, practice sessions, and her official ride on her social media @MegiiPierson. She's determined to beat all her male competitors and take home the win!
Nathan Ramsay
FUNDRAISER
STARS Air Ambulance
December 3rd 2011 my Uncle was in a severe car accident just outside of Three Hills, Alberta. He had a long list of injuries and had to be carefully cut out of his car. He was taken to the Three Hills Hospital where STARS Air Ambulance picked him up and quickly got him to the Foothills Hospital in Calgary where he then spent 10 days in ICU and another 114 days in hospital and rehabilitation before finally being released to go home on April 5th 2012. If it wasn't for STARS getting him to the help he needed so quickly my Uncle may not be here today. In 2012 I stared selling STARS Calendars, Band aids & Hockey Tape to say Thank You to STARS & and to help keep the non-profit organization in the sky to save many more lives.
Brian Cole
"The Camera Guy"
FUNDRAISER
Porch Light Society
He’s your 56 year old rodeo photographer, who is in the dirt capturing the moments. Now it’s time to put the camera down strap himself in and show these young bucks how to do it. Brian‘s charity is “Porch Light”, an organization dedicated to mental health awareness in the agricultural community. This is something near and dear to him, Maybe because he’s a little mental for doing this Please support “Porch Light”
Jim McKinstry
"The Referee Cowboy"
FUNDRAISER
Kidsport
Jim is the guy you love to hate. He is a local referee for hockey and baseball umpire who also works in our community at East Lake School as an Educational assistant. If you want to come out and cheer on the bull for all those missed calls and unwarranted penalties now is your chance. He has chosen to ride for Kidsport so more kids can play the sports they love.
Mike Stevenson
"Twisted Wrangler"
FUNDRAISER
Canadian Lyme Disease
Mike Stevenson is not a new face to the rodeo scene! Growing up in Cochrane, Alberta this farm raised cowboy definitely brings a good ride to the chutes. Starting rodeo at the age of 5 sheep riding, Mike grew quickly in the community always bringing an entertaining time in the arena and being one of those quick to lend a hand in the rodeo community across Alberta.
