Livermore Rodeo - Cowgirl Luncheon
The Livermore Rodeo Foundation in partnership with Livermore Stockmen's Rodeo Association is proud to announce the 20th Annual Lil' Pardners Rodeo, Sunday, June 14, 2015. We are very excited about the program and we're sure you will be too! You and your special child will be guests of the Rodeo Foundation and the Livermore Stockman’s Rodeo Association to be "cowboys and cowgirls for a day." This event will be limited to 40 mentally or physically challenged children who are between the ages of 5 and 15 years old. Attending family members are limited to 6, including the participant. Parents are to provide transportation for themselves and their children. Note: this is not a school-sponsored event. The participants will be guests of the Rodeo Foundation and the Livermore Stockmen's Rodeo Association.

The basic format of the Lil' Pardners Rodeo starts off with lunch and gifts donated by local businesses and individuals. Then your special-needs child is paired up with real cowboys and cowgirls, and engages in simulated rodeo activities.

The events include steer roping using pretend steers, eight-second rides on a hand-rocked bull and bareback horse, barrel racing using stick horses, and a ride on the back of a real horse! All events are designed to be appropriate for this group of special children.

The entire hour-long performance is announced by the official rodeo announcer for the Livermore Rodeo. Following completion of the events, each child is recognized with his/her cowboy "pardner," and is awarded a trophy and an autographed picture of the child and his/her cowboy "pardner." The Lil' Pardners Rodeo involves special-needs children, demonstrating a broad range of handicapped or mental conditions. Children from the Tri-Valley community serve as the program's participants. Safety considerations are foremost at all times.

The Lil Pardners Rodeo is scheduled to precede the Livermore Rodeo performance, with the general public in attendance invited to see this heartwarming event. The Lil' Pardners Rodeo participants and their families are then treated as our guests to the Livermore Rodeo, so they can see their cowboy "pardners" in action.

Relay for Life
Did you notice the purple ribbons and bows on First Street in Livermore and wonder why? The Relay For Life of Livermore “Paints the Town Purple” each year to represent those who have stood up to cancer and defeated it! Purple is the color that represents Cancer Survivors. So we proudly decorate Livermore’s First Street in their honor.

What is Relay For Life you ask?? It is the American Cancer Society’s signature event where participant walk for 24 hours because cancer never sleeps and neither will we until we can defeat it. This is the 30th Anniversary of Relay For Life and Livermore has held this event for 14 years. This year’s event will be held June 27-28, 2015 at Livermore High School’s track. Please come join us at 9:00am on the June 27th to witness the Survivor Lap and enjoy Team raffles, Kid’s Camp and much, much more.
