Get into the Rodeo spirit
BUSINESSES are being urged to get on board and help become part of the excitement leading up to the Mareeba Rodeo next month.
Each year, businesses throughout the town are encouraged to dress up their premises and shopfronts in a western theme to promote the spirit of the rodeo which will be held on 9 July.
As well as decking out their premises, businesses are also asked to ensure their staff are dressed in western style for the week of the event, but particularly on the day of the parade (8 July) and on judging day which will be on Monday 4 July.
Entries close on 29 June, with judging to determine six category winners –
Western Style Dress by Staff (eight or more people)
Western Style Dress by Staff (small business 1-7 people)
Best Decorated Large Foyer
Best Decorated Small Foyer
Best Decorated Shop Window
Best Overall.
The overall winner will receive a $2000 advertising package, courtesy of The Express Newspaper, and $300 cash.
To enter, businesses need to go to www.mareebarodeo.com.au and fill in an entry form.
