Sisters, Ore. – Sisters Rodeo 75th Anniversary poster art was unveiled at this month’s meeting of the Rodeo Association.
The Dennis McGregor poster depicts the era of the first of Sisters Rodeo in 1940. The saddle bronc cowboy is reminiscent of mustached characters of the old West, dressed in a throwback loose-fitting shirt and baggy dungarees.
“I talked to a lot of people about this painting,” McGregor said. “I wanted to give a true historical representation of Sisters Rodeo in 1940.”
This commemorative poster is available at several locations, including the rodeo ticket office, Leavitt’s Western Wear, Open Range, Stitchin’ Post and many other outlets in Central Oregon.
Sisters Rodeo will begin June 10 with Xtreme Bulls followed by four rodeo performances June 12-14. For tickets and information, call the ticket hotline at 541-549-0121 or 1-800-827-7522, or visit the ticket office at 220 W. Cascade Ave. in Sisters. For more information visit sistersrodeo.com.
