Kootenai River Stampede organizers have increased the contestants’ purses in the hope of drawing more competitors to the rodeo next week.
According to Patty Rambo, prize money has been increased to be consistent across the board, event-to-event. Â
"The women and timed event contestants have the potential to earn as much prize money as the rough stock riders," Rambo said in a press release. "Libby attracts week-end warriors to world champions, but KRS is always working to give the fans their monies worth."
