Canadian Finals Rodeo brings action; economic boost back to Red Deer
“After the some contestants stayed home. Some went down south and rodeoed in the United States.”
Robson added now that things are back in action, he feels that the momentum of the new city can continue. Previously, the competition was held in Edmonton.“We can make this a real strong pull. We’re gonna get there. It was a little setback. Keep in mind, Edmonton had 44 years to perfect the CFR. We are just a couple of years in and I think we’re doing a damn good job.”Red Deer’s economy will also benefit from the event being held in the city.
“It was really important to get our team back to work. It takes a team of thousands to put this on. It’s doing great things for and businesses,” he said.Olesen estimated about 25,000 people total will have attended the CFR over the five-day stretch. In 2019, 35,000 people attended.
