When the spotlight shines down on the dazzling lineup of horses and riders, flag bearers, vintage fire trucks and the ever-popular Texas Longhorn cattle in Reliant Stadium, the audience knows it is in store for another exciting performance of
the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™. As part of the RODEOHOUSTON™ opening ceremony, fans of all ages have come to enjoy the spectacular grand entry that kicks off
each RODEOHOUSTON performance. This extraordinary event would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of the 188-member Grand Entry Committee.
There’s a new team at Reliant Park preparing to take the reins of the Show’s future — the Jr. Rodeo Committee. This “youngest” committee
of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™ is 170 members strong. These 16-to 20-year-olds are learning how to follow in the boot prints and replenish the
ranks of the current volunteers as they retire.
Houston has the world-famous Galleria, dozens of shopping malls and thousands of unique shops
and stores. Just about anything can be found in the nation’s fourth largest city. There is only one
place to go, however, to find custom-made cowboy boots, salt-rock lamps, all-terrain vehicles and tractors,
hand-carved dining room furniture, diamond jewelry, cattle pens, and cinnamon rolls as big as a hand — that
place is the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™.
