Ep. 53 - Overcoming Adversity with Lakeside Rodeo

The impacts of the novel-coronavirus on rodeo committees and communities around the United States has been immense. We sat down at the start of the 2020 COVID-19 Pandemic to chat with Lakeside Rodeo of California's committee members about the painful conversation that took place to make the decision to postpone their event until 2021.

It's not the first time adversity has his this rodeo committee though - situated in the heart of San Diego, they have gone above and beyond to bridge the community gap between the urban and rural neighborhoods. They continue to work towards the 2021 event, as well as a few other smaller-scaled opportunities for their local rodeo community to stay involved and relevant during these times.

Join co-hosts Rachel Owens-Sarno and Katie Schrock as they dive deeper into the overreaching impacts of COVID-19.

Committee member Blake Buska joins us on the podcast to chat about what it’s like to be a committee member during this time.
