A message from Ross Millar, President ~

To all competitors, committees and fans: As we all go through this trying time I wanted to take a moment to update all the great competitors, fans, sponsors and committees that have for over 20 years have allowed us to grow the sport of rodeo.

I am so proud of the local committees that have put such effort into providing a playground for cowboys and cowgirls while bringing entertainment and competition to their communities and raising much-needed community funds. Keeping in touch with our committees, they have such heart and desire through these times to continue to bring the RAM Rodeo and Case IH Ultimate Rodeo Tours to their community.

While continuing the cowboy/girl spirit we all agree that we will not put on a rodeo unless safe conditions prevail as decided by our government and health departments.

With that said many of the committees have backed up the schedule in hopes that in just over 2 months we will move to the next stage and be deemed safe to hold these outdoor events in a responsible way.

Please look to www.rossmillargroup.com to find the updated schedule of all RMG events. Presently, RMG has developed one of the leading innovative ways to allow our competitors to still compete for the RAM Rodeo Tour Championships and the Royal Winter Fair Invitational Rodeo in Toronto through the newly developed RAM Rodeo Tour Practice Pen Qualifier.

All the sponsors of our tour have agreed to stay on with their support through what is a tough time for all businesses. I hope you will appreciate their support for the sport we love when considering your needs.

I wish everyone good health and look forward to re-uniting in a safe, responsible way soon.

Ram Rodeo & Case IH Ultimate Rodeo Tour Live Events

Once it is safe to do so and government isolation policies are lifted, competitors can qualify for the Newmarket Championships and Royal Winter Fair Invitational Rodeo in Toronto by competing at live RAM Rodeo Tour & Case IH Ultimate Rodeo Tour events.

We are very proud to have 17 rodeo committees and communities that have supported and promoted our great sport for over 20 years. All RAM Rodeo & Case IH Ultimate Rodeo Tours offer $1500 added money per standard event, including Ladies Pole Bending.

The 2020 rodeo schedule is posted on our website and it will be updated regularly. Decisions to host rodeos will be confirmed 3 weeks prior to the event, dependent on the current health situations.
