Rusham Stampede Rodeo - Saturday at 3pm EST

[Kiralynn]

The Windy Acres Ranch riding team is organizing a rodeo and you can join the fun!

The event will be held on Saturday, June 29th at 3:00pm server (EST).
The rodeo will take place on the Harrow Road farm in the Rusham neighborhood of Shire homesteads. The show will include a rodeo clown comedy act, war steed barrel racing, team penning, a “Best Wrangler” mounted fashion contest, and a “Best Rodeo Clown” talent contest. The audience will vote for the winners!

Prizes include Rohan furniture, cosmetics, and gold! (We might even wrangle up some Turbine Point codes before the event.)

We are looking for hobbit volunteers. We need stout Shire folk to act as “barrels” for the barrel racing competition. Riders will gallop their steeds in a cloverleaf pattern around the hobbits. These brave volunteers should wear bright, safety orange outfits to avoid being trampled.

The Lorien Livestock Liberation League has opened all of the barn doors, so we’re a little short on livestock for the team penning competition. Fortunately, there are no hobbit protection agencies. We need hobbits wearing animal masks and costumes to volunteer as cows, goats, chickens, pigs and donkeys.

If you would like to volunteer as a rodeo barrel or cow, please contact Kiralynn. Sign-ups for the competitions begin at 2:00pm on Saturday.
