CATTLE DRIVE

Saddle up for a real cattle drive, the Trail to the 2016 Burke Stampede on July 13th and 14th. Anyone wishing to ride is asked to contact trail boss Chris Cernetisch at 830-0473. The 2016 Trail to the Stampede will begin with a ride on the beautiful ranch of Todd and Tish Hoffman east of Fairfax on July 13th. On July 14th, the herd of Longhorn steers and cows with calves at side will be driven from north of the Herrick Elevator into Burke for the annual cattle drive down Main Street at approximately 4:30 PM.

The Longhorns will then be driven to the Stampede Arena in time for the Chuckwagon Feed and Stampede Idol Contest. You won’t want to miss this great opportunity to relive the days of yesteryear at an authentic cattle drive and experience the true west atmosphere of rodeos, cowboys, cowgirls and the western way of life.

This year’s Stampede Rodeo is the 27th Annual and promises to be one of the area’s finest rodeos. Make plans now to attend one or all three performances on July 15th, 16th, and 17th with all performances at 7:00 PM.

Remember to come early and come hungry as the Stampede concessions featuring roast beef sandwiches, nachos and much much more are as legendary as the Stampede Rodeo!! See and feel the old west come alive at the 2016 Trail to the Stampede and Burke Stampede Rodeo.
