students to see what being an Alumni of

To enter the reception a ticket is not
needed; however, students and alumni
members will need to pay to enter the Stock
Show grounds. You can purchase these tickets
for $30, by visiting tarletonstate.us/FWrodeo
or by calling 254-968-9682. The rodeo starts
at 8:30 p.m. in the Will Rogers Memorial
Coliseum. Alumni Association President,
Ken Dorris has reserved a section just for
Tarleton. According to Evans, the section
has already sold out and is hoping that this
event continues to grow and expand with each
upcoming year. Even thought that the section

at the Rodeo following this annual event is a
great way to tie the events together, especially
with it being the last year that the rodeo is
held in this location.”
