The annual Pioneer City Rodeo is coming up Labor Day Weekend in Palestine, Illinois and we have your chance to win tickets.

There's so much fun to be had at the Pioneer City Rodeo. It's an annual tradition in Palestine, Illinois that is a great time for everyone in the family. Of course, the main highlight is the rodeo itself, but this event has so much more than that. I'm talking about things like live music, food and treats, bounce houses, inflatables, tethered hot air balloon rides, and so much more!
