Aug | Sat 24, Sun 25th | ![]() Annual Rodeo being held in Wyalkatchem. If last years event was anything to go buy, those that attend all agreed that it was a great weekend. The event is on the Saturday but the idea is to go up on the Friday afternoon/evening and set up camp, party and have fun. The next day is full on and then in the evening there is a live band to entertain us. Most people left on the Sunday morning. Cost to camp for the weekend is $30 per person (Fri, Sat & Sun nights). Entry cost to the Rodeo is $59 per person ($39.50 for aged). Entry fee and camping fee have to be purchased separately.
