Collegiate Peaks Stampede Rodeo

09/18/2026

We are so excited to announce that Collegiate Peaks Stampede was voted "Best Large Purse Rodeo of the Year" by the CPRA. We knew we had a great rodeo this year, but when we receive that type of recognition from the CPRA and the contestants, it’s the icing on the cake! We are so proud of our board, our volunteers, our sponsors, our vendors, our stock contractors, our contestants, and our fans - y’all helped us put on a heck of a rodeo!

Y’all, this year’s rodeo was one for the books, and you all made it possible! We’re so grateful for each and every one of you who participated in some way, no matter how small - we wouldn’t be able to do any of this without you! Thank you to our sponsors, stock contractors, can man, vendors, contestants, announcer, flag ladies, volunteers, photographer, and the audience!

A huge thank you to Apex Waste - Chaffee County for sponsoring all things waste at this year’s rodeo! They handled the dirty work so everyone else could enjoy the fun. Now that’s a sponsorship we can really get behind! 🤠♻️ 📷Credit: Theomegakira

A huge THANK YOU to all of our sponsors, contestants, vendors, volunteers, spectators, and our can man, announcer, judges, crow’s nest team, and our stock contractor! 🤠

The Collegiate Peaks Stampede simply wouldn’t happen without you. We are incredibly grateful for your support, generosity, hard work, and enthusiasm. Because of you, we’re able to celebrate and preserve the western traditions, culture, values, and way of life that make our community so special.

Thank you for helping keep the spirit of the West alive—we couldn’t do it without you!
