The Foundation's Purpose

To promote, support, encourage and foster activities, programs and events that are reflective of the western way of life.

4-H & FFA Support

Investing in our youth is a big part of what we do. Local 4-H and FFA Livestock auctions give us a platform to reward the hours of hard work they’ve put into their project animals.

Supporting Local Rodeo

Caldwell Night Rodeo is proud to support two local college rodeo programs that make their homes within hours of our own arena.

Treasure Valley Community College is a top choice for high school graduates looking to continue their rodeo growth before entering in the PRCA. TVCC is located in Ontario, Oregon and has both a men’s and women’s rodeo team. They compete each year with a large representative at the College National Finals Rodeo in June.

College of Southern Idaho, located in Twin Falls, Idaho also boasts both a men’s and women’s rodeo team competing at high levels in the Pacific Northwest. CSI-Rodeo has a steady reputation of bringing regional trophies back to our great state.
