Saturday Night Rodeo at River Ranch

At Westgate River Ranch Resort, cowpokes and bronco busters gather every Saturday night from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. to participate in rodeos inside the 1,200-seat arena..

Saturday Night Rodeo at River Ranch

It has been a long standing tradition for many families visiting Central Florida to attend the Saturday Night Rodeo at Westgate River Ranch Resort near Lake Wales. The calf roping, barrel racing, trick riding, bull riding, and rodeo clown antics take center stage at this real-life rodeo. During the rodeo, your kids will have the opportunity to participate in a real “calf scramble.” There is a patriotic, flag-waving tribute to our armed forces that includes classic country songs like Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” and Toby Keith’s “Courtesy of the Red, White & Blue.”

 

 

River Ranch Dinner & Dance Party

The fun doesn’t stop once the Florida rodeo ends! If you feel bull riding isn’t that tough, then take a spin on a Mechanical Bull. After that, get your feet moving during the lively Dance Party just outside the River Ranch Saloon. Enjoy music and games from a lively DJ to end a perfect day.

Adults $25 / Children (ages 5-12) $15. Children 4 & under are complimentary. Call to confirm 863-692-1321.

Bubble Run 2022 Orlando

The course consists of three miles of rad terrain where participants run, walk, dance, and play. You’ll encounter bogs of colored suds along the way, which will bring back childhood memories of car washes and bathtub bubble beards. There’s no question that BUBBLE RUNTM runners are serious about having fun. They range from first-timers (plenty) to seasoned competitors. However, there is no race clock, no timing chips, and no ESPN coverage. Go at your own pace and don’t be concerned about setting a personal record. You can, however, time your run if you wish. That’s okay.

Running is one fairly common and simple athletic activity that most people can pick up anytime. In truth, most of us are already familiar with running. We think that starting a running program is also just as simple. We simply start to run the next day, with resolve that we will do it regularly from now on. The resolve and the intention are decent. It is in the headlong rush that makes it fairly incorrect. It may even be downright dangerous. 

Running Tips for Beginners

Running is an enjoyable, low-maintenance sport that it is no surprise many are enticed to get into it. Many beginning runners, however, initially find running somewhat injurious and exhausting and so give up. Truth is, it can be, especially if the novice runners have not been properly educated. To get the most out of running, it is important that every beginning runner knows everything about the sport and is prepared enough for it. Following are some running tips for beginners that will make an otherwise rigorous sport into a pleasurable activity.

Founded in March 2011, the Color Run is the world’s first COLOR 5kTM event which brings communities together to promote healthiness and happiness by running in the “Happiest 5k on the Planet”.
