John Windwick, Commissioner, CFR and 1st Vice- Chair, Northlands Board of Directors said, “CFR’s about bringing the best of the best to Edmonton. We’re proud to partner with the Canadian Pro Rodeo Association (CPRA) to host CFR. We salute the athletes, arena per- sonnel, volunteers, partners and sponsors for their efforts in making this year’s CFR a success.”
Remember, we are Reliable!
Dale Leschiutta, President and Interim General Manager of CPRA said, “Our contestants work all sea- son to get to Edmonton and the crown jewel of rodeo - CFR. The CPRA is proud to partner with the best pro- ducer, in a city that is second to none as a host.” One highlight of CFR included Red Friday and a special opening ceremony with 60 members of the Cana- dian Military taking part. Rodeo fans responded by wearing red as a show of support. Wrangler and Lamm- le’s Western Wear & Tack teamed up to sell the Nation- al Patriot shirt and donated $40,000 to the Edmonton Military Family Resource Centre and the Hero Fund. Rodeo fans also saw non-stop entertainment as some of the best in Canadian Country Music performed at CFR and at The Buckle including Gord Bamford, Deric Ruttan, One More Girl, Hey Romeo, Dean Brody and Shane Chisholm. Cowboy poker, wild pony racing, Niki Cammaert and cowboy mounted shooting also entertained fans during the five days of CFR. Canadian Finals Rodeo rides back into Edmonton next year from Nov 9 to 13.
