Congratulations to the 2018 RAM Rodeo Finals & Year-End Champions!

The RAM-Case IH Rodeo Championships saw a record attendance this past weekend at the Royal Canadian Riding Academy in Newmarket! Top cowboys and cowgirls from the 2018 competed head to head over 3-days for Championship titles, buckles and over $40,000 in added prize money. The event closed out a successful 21^st year of the RAM Rodeo Tour with almost 500 competitors competing in 15 different communities across Ontario this past season.

A thank you goes out to the competitors for working hard all season to qualify for Championships, and for putting on such a great rodeo performance for a very exciting 3 days! Thank you to our partners and sponsors for supporting the RAM Rodeo Championships, without their help we wouldn't be able to run such great events. Thank you to our staff and volunteers who worked hard all weekend long to ensure that the event ran smoothly.

We'd also like to send a thank you to our rodeo family and community who came together on Friday night’s Calcutta in support of Tyson Kimmett and his family. A big special mention goes out to Isabelle Berube for coming up with the idea and Estelle Berube for organizing a successful event where over $5,000 was raised!

We aren’t over just yet as the top 8 competitors in Barrel Racing and Pole Bending, and top 4 in Bull Riding, Saddlebronc and Bareback will go onto compete at the 2018 Invitational Toronto Royal Winter Fair Rodeo on Novemeber 11, for more information visit: www.royalfair.org
