Rodeo of Champions

Most everybody wanted to be a cowboy as a kid… The lucky ones grew up to be one. The rest of us admire them….. Come and see the American cowboy and cowgirl at the Rodeo of Champions in Elk City Labor Day Weekend.

Beutler Brothers Rodeo Arena

The famed stock contracting firm from Elk City, Oklahoma, is the third generation of Beutlers to be in the stock contracting business.  Bennie and his son, Rhett, make up the Beutler and Son Rodeo Company, which provides bucking horses and bulls to premier rodeos across the nation. The company has had animals selected to buck at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo nearly every year in its decades of existence.  

Rodeo of Champions Parade

Elk City’s bustling city turns into a down-home celebration of Western heritage, Labor Day weekend. Decorative floats come together with many cowboys and cowgirls on horseback to fill the streets with hoof beats and a marching band. Enthusiastic Elk Citians join out of town spectators to line the streets and sidewalks to be involved in one of Elk City’s most popular events! Parade starts at 10:00 AM. Elk City’s Downtown Retail district is a great place to park and watch as the parade goes by!
