Ever hear of Strong City Kansas? If the answer is “no” – well don’t feel alone. It’s not a big place and most of the time there’s not a whole lot happening there. But each year, usually in early June, Strong City Kansas hosts the Flint Hills Rodeo. It’s not a huge and flashy Big City type rodeo either. It’s not held inside some glass and chrome “multi-sports” area. No sir. The Flint Hills Rodeo is the real deal. Outside, under the big blue sky in the day and the stars at night. It’s a down home event and it’s a hit every year. Here’s a photo collection to give you some idea of all that happened this year. Welcome to Kansas Rodeo!
