The rodeo is returning to Chilton County.

After an absence of several years, the Professional Cowboy Association will come to Clanton on Oct. 28-29 for the Chilton County Fall Classic hosted by the Chilton County Rodeo Club.

The event will be held at the Chilton County Fairgrounds, with gates opening at 4 p.m. both days and the action starting at 7:30 p.m.

Friday will be “Tough Enough to Wear Pink” night, with a portion of the proceeds being donated to the American Cancer Society.

Saturday will feature a “steer dressing” competition, with teams competing to be the quickest to put a pair of ladies’ undergarments on a steer.

The event will also include vendors, a rock climbing wall and other activities for kids.

“We want to get a lot of people out there,” said Allen Wyatt, an event organizer with the county Rodeo Club. “We think it’s going to be a good event.”

3R Rodeo Company of Jemison will be the stock contractor.
