Raymond Stampede

Posted on: 6/28/2010


Saddle Up! The Raymond Stampede takes place this week.  The famous Raymond Stampede is the longest continually running rodeo in Canada! Come out for a weekend full of events including pancake breakfasts, a parade, family softball tournament, 2K fun run, and fireworks in addition to the rodeo! 

New Heritage Days Parade Route!

The Rotary Parade route has been changed. Instead of going north to 400N it will only go up Broadway to 300N. This change has been made to allow traffic to follow the truck routes during the parade.

Heritage Days Schedule 2010

A couple of new things this year! The Road Race will have door prizes, chip timing, performance shirts, and a 2K Fun Run & Walk! For the Fun Run, bring your kids, your strollers - its for everyone!

Also new this year is the Hoopfest - Raymonds 1st Annual 3-on-3 basketball tournament, played streetball style on outdoor courts. For more information, visit the Towns website - pre-registration required!
