Tofield Bull Bash to host its 9th Annual on Saturday; 30 contestants to ride

In Tofield there’s a different kind of buzz even with the provincial election looming large next week.

Hosting its ninth annual, the Tofield Bull Bash will be welcoming some big names from the bull riding world, including last year’s champion from Medicine Hat, Wacey Finkbeiner.

There will be two local names, Holden’s Chris Young and Camrose’s Coy Robbins.

Among the 30 riders, six will be riding in the final round.

Doors open at 6 p.m. with the event starting at 7 p.m.

This year once again Big Valley’s Dustin Edwards will be announcing and emceeing the event, and Justin Tiedemann of Backyard Balloons will be entertaining the kids by making various-shaped balloons throughout the evening.

The concession will be manned by the Tofield Skating Club, and sponsor tables will be bale to take in the action from up close.

Singer Emily Sjursen will start the evening with some songs, and at the end of the event, there will be dancing to the DJ, an adults-only event.
