Rodeo is an exhibition of unquestionable grit, determination, fortitude and skill. It is a sport that has developed from the strong history of the great Australian stockman. A link with our long lost past where hard working men and women faced every adversity with the typical positive Australian attitude and still had enough energy for a bit of sport at the end of the day. With a strong history of providing top level entertainment, the Cooma Rodeo is popular with young and old alike. PO Box 1010, Cooma NSW 2630. Website: www.coomarodeo.org.au
