Approved by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, and well respected by rodeo fans in the southwest, the YMBL Rodeo always offers plenty of thrills, spills and action. A big party before the Thursday Night Rodeo performance to say thank you to the media, the workers, the board, the committee, PRCA Officials, cowboys, key community leaders and rodeo fans. The primary responsibility of the committee is to organize and stage the annual Special Kids Day at the YMBL Rodeo. The lifeblood of any volunteer organization is membership and this committee will begin its work in early January signing new members and encouraging current members to pay their dues early to ensure their place on the membership rolls and projects during the coming year. This party, when all YMBL members are invited, is held right before the South Texas State Fair opens, also gives members an opportunity to volunteer for jobs at the Fair.
Dinner is served and door prizes are awarded to lucky ticket holders.
In addition there is a short program of introductions. This Fishing Tournament has proven to be a popular outing with valuable prizes offered to the better fishermen and a lot of fun and fellowship for the taking by all YMBLers who enter. The Saltwater tourney has been headquartered at or near Bolivar in the past and is limited to the waters in and around Galveston Bay. Golfers, who enjoy outstanding golf courses, good fellowship, excellent food and refreshments as well as a valuable assortment of prizes, always look forward to this exciting membership activity. Usually, play is limited to the first 200 members who sign up for the tournament and the bracket is always filled.
