Battlefords Agricultural Society to host chuckwagon races
The Battlefords can expect some horsing around at the Exhibition Grounds early next month.
From June 2 to 4, the Battlefords Agricultural Society (BAS) will host the first stop on the Canadian Professional Chuckwagon Association’s (CPCA) circuit. Some of these racers will move on to compete at the Calgary Stampede later in the year.
June 2 and 3 will focus on various heats for racers to compete, with finals and awards taking place on June 4. Generally, there is 12 racers minimum per evening, but in the past, the event has seen as many as 18.
Jocelyn Ritchie, general manager of BAS, said the event is fast-paced and will be exciting for attendees across all demographics.
