Among Kamsack area residents who followed the action at this year鈥檚 Calgary Stampede held July 3 to 12 are members of the Kamsack Indoor Rodeo committee who recognized several competitors from their Kamsack performances.
Aaron Roy of Yellowgrass, a bull rider who was among past competitors at Kamsack, was injured two years ago at the Calgary Stampede when a bull stepped on his back and broke it, said information from the Kamsack rodeo committee. This year Roy was riding the bulls again in Calgary and was not bucked off until the championship final.
Other bull riders in Calgary who had competed at Kamsack included Dakota Buttar and Tanner Byrne, the information said. Rylan Geiger, a saddle bronc competitor, has competed in Kamsack as well as this year鈥檚 Stampede, and among the bareback riders who tested their skills at both rodeos are: Orin Larsen, Clint Laye and Ty Taypotat.
