Join in on the Fun- Tickets on Sale for the 2nd Annual Guns & Hoses City Slickers Ranch Rodeo

The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office is teaming up with the Norris Penrose Rodeo Legacy Foundation and C&L Productions to bring you the 2nd Annual Guns & Hoses City Slickers Ranch Rodeo, a celebration of western heritage and a salute to our first responders and military heroes in the Pikes Peak region.

Here’s the twist:
Each team is made up of 4 City Slickers and 1 real-deal Cowboy. The Cowboy rides horseback. The City Slickers? They’re on foot. No experience necessary.

During the events, the Cowboy will be on horseback, and the City Slickers will be on foot.

The teams will compete in 3 timed events. The team with the fastest overall time will be declared the winner.

The events will be:

-Dally Ribbon Roping

-Cattle Sorting

-Hide Race

The fastest team overall walks away with bragging rights, shiny belt buckles, and the satisfaction of winning it all for their chosen local non-profit charity.

Event Details:
June 27, 2026
Norris Penrose Event Center
1045 Lower Gold Camp Rd, Colorado Springs, CO 80905

Touch-a-Truck: 3:30-5:30 PM
Come early and climb into patrol cars, fire engines, and more—perfect for the young (and young at heart).

Rodeo Showtime: 6-9 PM
Watch your heroes hustle, rope, race, and probably rethink their life choices, all for a good cause.

Bonus Round: After the City Slickers finish their events, stick around for professional bull riding, because someone’s gotta ride the bulls, and it sure won’t be the City Slickers.

Tickets are $20 for adults (13 years+), and $10 for kids 6-12. Under 5 is free.
