Cave Creek Fiesta DaysTM 2014
President’s Welcome
Welcome to the Annual Cave Creek Fiesta Days™ Rodeo celebration. The members of the Cave Creek Pro Rodeo committee have been working hard all year to bring you another great weekend of professional rodeo. We are extremely pleased to be bringing back the Cervi Brothers Rodeo Company as our 2014 Stock Contractor. Their world champion bucking horses and bulls definitely did not disappoint our fans or the cowboys in 2012 or 2013.
Once again, we’ve been busy in the arena making improvements. The Bucking Chutes got a much-needed face-lift with lots of paint and new sponsor signage. Hats off to the committee members who have forfeited their weekends to make sure the rodeo grounds are looking good for our event.
The continued support from our sponsors and advertisers is so important and we thank each and every one of you. The 2014 Cave Creek Fiesta Days Rodeo is presented by Sanderson Ford. Sanderson Ford is the first CCFDR Presenting Sponsor and we look forward to continuing this partnership for many years.
For our thousands of rodeo fans, the first PRCA performance is on Friday, March 28 at 7:30 p.m. and it is “Pink Night.” The second PRCA performance is Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. The final PRCA performance, Wrangler National Patriot Day, is Sunday at 2 p.m. Rodeo weekend offers three full action packed PRCA performances at the Cave Creek Memorial Arena and tickets are available now at www.TicketForce.com (2013 had two sold out performances, so we suggest buying tickets early).
Special events during rodeo include the Historic Fiesta Days Parade at 9 a.m. on Saturday morning in the Town of Cave Creek. The Mutton Bustin’ competition and finals are at 2 p.m. on Saturday. The Friday night Rodeo Dance is sponsored by the Cave Creek Tap Haus. The Saturday night Rodeo Dance is sponsored by Harold’s Corral. The full schedule of rodeo and special events can be found at www.CaveCreekProRodeo.com
On behalf of the 2014 Board of Directors, I’d like to thank the Cave Creek Pro Rodeo committee and all its volunteers who spend countless hours organizing and planning this annual event. Our ultimate success relies on the commitment and support from our committee members, volunteers, sponsors, advertisers and the Town of Cave Creek.
We know you will enjoy Fiesta Days and all it has to offer. Your attendance helps us to continue the tradition of professional rodeo in Cave Creek and also helps us support local charities. We are proud to have donated over $7,000 to local charities in 2013 and look forward to giving even more this year.
See you at the Chutes – March 28, 29 & 30!
Sincerely,
Traci Casale
