RODEO EVENTS

REACH Program

Rodeo Education and Children (REACH) is a fun and educational program celebrating the historic sport of rodeo and the spirit of the American West. Offered to Tucson-area elementary schools since 1995 at no charge, REACH introduces K-6 students to rodeo, increasing their awareness of Western heritage and the working cowboy. The 45-minute presentation involves student participation, demonstrating rodeo equipment and events, and includes unique substance abuse and gang prevention messages, teaching students to "cowboy up" when faced with difficult choices.

Since its inception in 1991 by Penny Conway, an elementary school teacher and rodeo competitor, REACH has reached over three million students in 31 states. All instructors are certified elementary educators. For more information, visit reachkids.com. Students can bring sack lunches, snacks, and beverages, with concession stands also available. Home school groups must register in advance for free admission. All programs take place at Tucson Rodeo Grounds, 4823 S. 6th Ave., with free parking for buses and cars. Call to Register, 520-651-2662
