Executive Chairperson Cara Peek said, " Our long-term goal is to use the income to create sustainable events and establish a purpose built Rodeo school in Broome offering training and master classes in all aspects of Rodeo and horsemanship. In addition, the school will also offer equine therapy and diversionary programs for disengaged community members, giving at risk youth an alternative way of being involved in life, learning life skills on country and become reengaged in the world around them."
