The Christian County Cattlemen’s Association is preparing for one of its biggest community events of the year—the annual rodeo. Now in its 26th year, the event draws crowds from across the country while raising money for scholarships and youth involvement.
Traditionally held on the 3rd weekend of August, the Hopkinsville-Christian County Cattlemen’s Rodeo brings the community together for two nights of family-friendly entertainment—and as Jason Jenkins says… a whole lot of purpose.
