Rodeo

After canceling last year’s show due to the pandemic, the Wild Thing Bullriding Championship saw record crowds during the two-day event.

Itching for another shot, Shiprock bull rider Julius Y. Begay is back at it again.

Winning a state title for Faron Candelaria Jr. and Kadin Jodie took years in the making.

Thanks to the high percentage of New Mexicans getting vaccinated, Peterson got the go-ahead to host this year’s event, which is scheduled for July 9 to 10 at Red Rock Park.
