Congratulations to Nebraska's Big Rodeo as they will be inducted into the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame in Colorado Springs, CO this summer!  What a great honor for the board members, their families and all of the volunteers that make this a great rodeo each and every year!

"Well for a community the size of Burwell at just 1,200 people that puts on the quality of show we put on it's not only huge for Burwell, but the area and the state of Nebraska," said Jess Helgoth, President of Nebraska's Biggest Rodeo. "My great-great grandpa was one of the original founders back in 1921. So, to be able to carry it on to be a 101 this year is just unbelievable awesome for a community no bigger than we are. It just absolute means the world to us."

This talented class will be inducted July 16, 2022 at the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in Colorado Springs.
