    Note from

    Julie Gray, Director of the Mason County NPRA Rodeo  

     

    Due to circumstances beyond my control there will NOT be a 2015 Mason County Rodeo. Our Mason County Rodeo Court will continue to promote Mason County and the Mason County Rodeo Association thru the 2015 year. Our plan is to come back strong with a Rodeo at the Ridge Motor Sports Track in 2016. Thank you to all that have sponsored, donated and volunteered for the past 15 years to the Mason County Rodeo. Without all of you, Rodeo in Mason County could not have happened. As the 2015 Miss Teen Rodeo Washington said, It's not the end, it' the beginning of our new adventure!
