Many of the top Junior High school rodeo competitors in the province will gather in Gilbert Plains this weekend for their provincial finals.

The action goes from Friday until Sunday, and event spokesperson Courtney Roehl says all traditional rodeo events will take place.

"There is everything from barrel racing and pole bending to bull riding and bronc riding."

This is not the first time that Gilbert Plains has hosted the junior high finals, and Roehl says the community is ready to welcome many visitors this weekend.

"It is definitely a lot of work.  We have a lot of volunteers that work together and a lot of sponsorships that come in to help put this event on.  So we want to thank everybody from the Gilbert Plains, Grandview, and Dauphin areas for sponsoring, and all of our volunteers for helping out." 

Show times are 10 am Friday and Saturday and 9 am on Sunday.

Admission is free.
