PRIVATE, INVITE-ONLY RODEO
Rogue Rodeo has partnered with Kemin Industries to offer its employees from around the world the chance to attend an authentic, professionally-ran, private rodeo. For many, the event will be the first of a lifetime!
More than 800 Kemin employees from six continents (90 countries) will be arriving in Des Moines, Iowa, this week. We are incredibly honored to host them at this event, as part of Kemin’s “Journey to the Vision”, a global sales and marketing meeting held every three years in various locations around the world. The invitation-only event will offer cowboys and cowgirls the opportunity to compete for prize money while providing a glimpse of the American sport to international guests.

Click on the link below to see the UNOFFICIAL DRAW for the Iowa Horse Fair in Des Moines, but please check the official draw posted at the rodeo in case of changes.
Enter on the south side of the fairgrounds at GATE 7 off of Dean Avenue. No cars will be allowed to park in the contestant parking area this year, so hopefully it’ll be a little easier to park. If you’re not parked in the designated parking area, please be mindful of the grassed areas.
They’ve told us that they are requiring health papers this year.
Please bring your buddy with you when you pay fees and they can get their wristbands. The Horse Fair needs to keep track of buddy passes handed out for capacity reasons.
If you have your membership already, please have your card with you when you pay fees to speed up the process.
We have a really full show planned for Saturday night, so please be ready when it’s your turn!
Thank you all for your entries; it’s going to be a great show!
Oh — God’s timing is always perfect! We had a very healthy baby boy a week earlier than expected, so we’re officially ready for a rodeo now!
