Professional cowboys and cowgirls all over the country are getting ready for their favorite Southeastern Rodeo, the 17th Annual Jennifer Claire Moore Foundation Professional Rodeo on Thursday, August 7th, Friday, August 8th and Saturday, August 9th, 2014 at the City of Foley Horse Arena. The event’s title sponsor is South Baldwin Regional Medical Center and its sustaining sponsor is Dodge RAM Rodeo.
All proceeds benefit the Jennifer Claire Moore Foundation, a nonprofit that provides training, funding and support for peer-to-peer programs in Baldwin County public elementary, intermediate, middle, high schools and two private school systems. The Peer Helper program is a certified curriculum taught by trained teachers and counselors who prepare their students to become mentors, tutors, mediators and friends to their fellow students. Peer Helpers assist other young people in coping with both academic and social pressures of day-to-day life.
Pre-rodeo activities begin nightly at 7:00pm and the rodeo starts nightly at 8:00pm. The Pre-rodeo festivities include “Hometown Heroes” on Thursday night, a tribute to military and emergency services personnel; “Tough Enough to Wear Pink” on Friday night, a national rodeo movement in support of breast cancer awareness; and “School Spirit” on Saturday night, an opportunity for young and old to support Baldwin County schools by wearing their team colors.
