— By Donald Stotts



  STILLWATER, Okla. – Rodeo enthusiasts interested in supporting the Oklahoma State University Rodeo Team should register now to attend the Oct. 26 Rodeo Legacy Banquet at Meditations, sponsored by Ball Auction Services.

 A social hour will begin at 6 p.m., with dinner being served at 7 p.m. There will be live and silent auctions at the dinner. Tickets are $50 each and can be purchased from OSU Rodeo Team members or Coach Cody Hollingsworth by email at coach@osurodeo.com or by phone at 405-707-7072.

 Hollingsworth said funds raised through this event will be applied to program needs, rodeo travel and scholarships for team members. The team is a student organization affiliated with the OSU Division of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources.

 “Team members come to the university with a commitment to their education and a passion for the sport of rodeo,” Hollingsworth said. “The team provides an opportunity for students to develop their skills in and out of the arena, while also helping to promote the heritage of rodeo through various university activities.”

 

Participants are asked to RSVP no later than Oct. 19 by calling Hollingsworth or signing up via the OSU Rodeo Team website at http://www.osurodeo.com on the Internet.
