Fun Things to Do – Cool Places to Go

California’s cowboys might also enjoy a trip to the Red Bluff Roundup

ROUND-UP WEEK 2006….
More than just a Rodeo!

Once again, the 85th Annual Red Bluff Round-Up is more than just a rodeo! You are going to find a whole host of activities throughout “Tehama Country,” from April 15-23, sponsored by several area organizations and co-ordinated by the Red Bluff-Tehama County Chamber of Commerce.

Round-Up Week festivities are kicked off with the “running of the bucking horses” through town as local rodeo stock provider John Growney and his crew herd over 100 rodeo horses down Main Street… just like they did in the good old days!

This procession is preceded by rip-roarin’ Chili Cook-Off, live entertainment, pony rides, a kiddie parade, a car show, and food & souvenir booths… all in the downtown area.

Come and enjoy the rodeo, but whatever you do, DON’T MISS THE PARTY AFTERWARDS!
