2025 WILLITS FRONTIER DAYS LIONS CLUB BREAKFAST JR RODEO BRONCS AND BULLS

LIONS CLUB BREAKFAST

After a full several days of Fourth of July and Willits Frontier Days festivities concludes, the best place to be early the next morning is at the cowboy breakfast held at the Rec Grove Park.

The Lion’s Club gets busy early in the morning to make sure the hungry gathered crowd can grab a hot plate of hotcakes, ham, eggs and hot coffee.

Tables are available at the park to sit and eat and many enjoy gathering to chat about the year’s events.

Tickets for the breakfast are available from the Sweetheart contestants and at the event which runs from 7 to 11 am.

JR RODEO

CCPRA’ers had to start somewhere and the Junior Rodeo event is the place for the little buckaroos to hone their arena skills before competing with the big guys and gals.

Many of the junior contestants also have been in the saddle since they were very little, many with practical ranch experience already under their belts.

Events at the junior rodeo include many of the CCPRA events, just on a smaller scale. Calf and steer riding offer the little ones a chance to get ready for the bulls and the Mystery Scramble gives everyone -contestants AND spectators – a great giggle.

Though competition can be fierce even on the smaller scale, the parents of these little ones are always cheering them on and supporting them in every event.

Like the CCPRA rodeos, the stock is provided by Humboldt County’s Lou Bugenig and Mike Mora of West Coast Rodeos and the winner of the event also receives the All Around title and an engraved buckle as well. The overall high-point winner for the day will have the honor of receiving the Bud Suttles Memorial Trophy also.
