Days of '56 PRCA Rodeo

06/10/2026

Our new rodeo royalty had an extremely busy Tuesday with interviews, public appearances, and sponsor visits yesterday!
One stop we are very proud of is our local Ponca Fire Department. This rodeo is extremely grateful for Ponca’s community involvement. They have spent countless hours making sure our contestants and fans are safe. Many roughstock cowboys have been able to seek medical attention immediately with them being at our event for many years.
Fun fact! Our new 2026 Miss Days of ‘56, Jozlyn Anderson is also an active member of her local fire department in Plainview, Nebraska!
Please make sure to go support them Friday evening at their benefit dance after you have enjoyed the rodeo performance!
Thank you for all you do for our community Ponca Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department
We appreciate your dedication!!
