Three (3) local non-profit organizations, Buffalo Soldiers of New Mexico, Navajo Elks Lodge #863, and New Mexico Horizons, Inc., joined together and formed the African American Rodeo Group to sponsor the African & Native American Invitational Rodeo. This will be our SECOND ANNUAL RODEO that African  and Native American Cowboys and Cowgirls will be competing fully, And include other ethnic groups.

We are very proud and excited to sponsor this event in Los Lunas, New Mexico, at the Southwest Event Center, exit 203 on I-25, (drive 5 miles west) just 25 minutes south of Albuquerque International Sunport  .  As part of our mission, the rodeo is only the start of the future for the AARG.  We will award scholarships to high school and undergraduate students majoring in Animal Sciences, Rodeoing, Agriculture, Ranching, and other related fields.   Some proceeds will also go toward educational programs about the historical contributions of African Americans and Native Americans in developing the " WEST ". We will address the need for specialized training in developing Riding clubs, Equestrian Teams, Large Animal care, as well as the pathway to become certified in professional rodeo events.
