MISSION STATEMENT:
The Old Fort Days Rodeo is a community project sponsored by the Arkansas-Oklahoma Regional Education and Promotion Association, Inc. The Association, which is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit corporation, was organized exclusively for the purpose of educating and informing the residents of Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma about agricultural matters.
It is in pursuit of this goal that the Association sponsors annual public fairs, exhibitions, rodeos and other special events. These events offer the public a unique opportunity to be exposed to and informed about the many areas of agriculture including livestock breeding and improvement of breeds, horticulture, horses, poultry, swine and resource management and conservation.
In support of the stated mission and purpose of the Association, thousands of additional dollars are expended annually for the enhancement, enlargement and improvement of Kay Rodgers Park. The accommodations provided to fairgoers, rodeo enthusiasts and the participants in every event are maintained in top condition.
