2024-2025 Crowdfunding Campaign
Colorado State University Rodeo has a rich history that dates clear back to the Universities A&M days. This rodeo program was the first in the nation and started what would become a nation wide opportunity for college kids and their rodeo careers.
CSU Rodeo is about to celebrate their 72nd year as a nationally recognized program. The coaches are very proud of the work that has been done to preserve the tradition of this program while growing to evolve with the rest of the industry.
We are launching a fundraising match campaign with a very generous donor matching the first $25,000 that we raise! This fundraising campaign is essential to our program for several reasons. It helps with the costs of producing a top notch rodeo, the annual Skyline Stampede. These funds help pay for our Rodeo teams travel expenses such as fuel, stalls, and entry fees. It also helps us provide different opportunities for our student athletes, such as clinics, mental coaching, tailored workout programs, and team gatherings/events.
Our program is providing opportunities to enhance student athletes rodeo careers while receiving a first class education. Your support plays a pivotal role in our success.
If you are ready to help the CSU Rodeo program continue to thrive, grow, and continue to leave its mark in history please donate!
