Cody Stampede moving forward with four days of rodeos

POWELL — The Cody Stampede Rodeo is officially a go. Leaders of the annual event say they’re moving forward with four full rodeos, which will be held July 1-4. 

“As always, our goal is to showcase the best rodeo possible over our Independence Day celebration,” Cody Stampede Board leaders announced Friday, promising that each performance “will feature some of the very best in the business” and a new women’s breakaway roping event. 

Exactly how many people will be allowed into the arena is subject to change, but under the current rules, up to 600 spectators per night can enter...
