Description

The Tucson Chapter of Chicks n Chaps™ will host its 11th Annual Women's Rodeo Clinic, on Sunday, February 18, 2024 in conjunction with the 99th Annual Fiesta de los Vaqueros Tucson Rodeo.  

 

To date, our 501 (c)3 non-profit organization has raised over $104,000 for local breast cancer support. These funds provide treatments, much needed supplies, and support through Arizona Cancer Foundation to patients and their loved ones in Southern Arizona suffering from this awful disease. ALL OF THE MONEY WE RAISE STAYS RIGHT HERE IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA AND GOES DIRECTLY TO PATIENTS!

 

Celebrating eleven years of Chicks n Chaps at the Tucson Rodeo. We are excited to host the event in the Coors Barn. More room means more exciting clinics and more silent auction items!

 

How you attend is your call. Only have the morning available? Register for the clinic, you'll be done by 1:00 p.m.  Included with your registration is parking, brunch, rodeo clinics, a t-shirt, and a gift bag.

 

Busy in the morning but still want to be a part of this amazing event? Buy a ticket to watch the rodeo in the Chick Pit! Skip our clinics and spend your afternoon cheering on the cowboys and cowgirls all while supporting Chicks n Chaps and Arizona Cancer Foundation. 

 

Or do both!! The choice is yours!!

 

Chicks n Chaps™ is for EVERYONE! So gals and guys, cowgirls, cowboys, and city folk alike, come join us as we look behind the chutes at the sport of rodeo and support a great cause.
