It’s that time of year again! What a way to kick off the year with San Antonio’s Stock Show & Rodeo.
Whether your looking forward to Food, Entertainment, Rides & Shows the Stock Show and rodeo is sure to provide plenty of fun & goodtimes for the whole family. This is one of my favorite times of the year. here are some fun activities you might consider.
Bar-B-Que Cook-off: The San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo Bar-B-Que Cookoff is an annual event that occurs prior to the start of the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo. Nearly 300 teams of the world’s best Barbequers compete in this championship event. There is live music throughout the day, shopping and plenty of fine Texas Barbeque to sample.
Stock Show Stampede: This annual 4 Mile Run and/or 1.6 Mile Walk allows volunteers and patrons the chance to “get fit” before they “get Rodeo ready”! The race begins at the Gembler Road satellite parking lot and continues around Red Berry Mansion, ending at the Stock Show & Rodeo grounds.
Youth Day: Youth Day is an entire day during the San Antonio Rodeo dedicated to Youth! During this day, 4-H, FFA, & FCCLA members from across Texas gather together to showcase their organizations, activities, & project work. These members set up exhibits and interactive activity booths for young visitors attending the Stock Show & Rodeo. Children are treated to arts and crafts, games, demonstrations, sweet treats, and educational activities. All the fun of Youth Day is included with your rodeo or grounds ticket.
Rodeos dare cowboys to test their abilities to the fullest such as bull riding, bareback horse riding, and steer wrestling. The livestock show gives children a firsthand look at the life of a Texas rancher and lets them meet the many animals the ranchers bring with them for judging and auction. Kids can participate in many of the activities they would experience on a ranch, such as milking a cow, and play with some of the actual animals at a petting zoo and other interactive exhibits.
Visitors should be sure to spend some time enjoying the grounds, where clothes and custom boots can be bought from one of hundreds of vendors selling items of the western variety walk through the art displays showing beautiful work and talent from local students. The family fair and carnival offer everything from authentic barbeque and funnel cakes to thrilling rides and family friendly shows.
