Bustin’ a mutton
Annual parade to kick off PRCA rodeo
A parade in downtown Cleburne tonight will kick off the 55th annual Johnson County Sheriff’s Posse PRCA rodeo. The parade begins at 6 p.m.
The theme of the parade is “Of the community, for the community.”
Participants in the parade are asked to report to the Sheriff’s Posse grounds around 4 p.m. to register, said Susan Akey, chairperson of the rodeo committee.
The number of participants is not yet known.
“It could be anywhere from 200 to 500,” Akey said. “We’ve got a lot of calls.”
Participants are prohibited from throwing objects from floats, but walkers may hand out objects.
All horses must have Coggins.
Awards will be presented for different categories such as best riding group, best dressed and best float.
The rodeo queen, princess and sweetheart contestants will also ride in the parade.
Sheriff Bob Alford will serve as grand marshal.
For information about the parade, call Akey at 817-487-2103.
