WELCOMENgaji gurrjin,
We hope you are feeling happy in our Yawuru country
Yawuru is happy to support the ‘Rhythm and Ride Rodeo, Campdraft & Country
Music’. Kimberley Indigenous people, including Yawuru, have a proud tradition
of working on country and on pastoral stations. We have grown up knowing
the lifestyle, the amazing skills and the strong character of the riders who you
see in the ring this weekend.
That connection of our people to the land, the lifestyle and the community
events of the region makes our ‘liyan’ (wellbeing) feel strong. Liyan is at the
heart of Yawuru’s endeavours and ensures the Yawuru community is
welcoming and embodies traditional Broome values of inclusiveness,
hospitality and friendship.
It makes us proud to see the riders and competitors share their skills with the
audience. Rodeos, horse work and, of course music, bring people together and
are part of our cultural lives. We hope you enjoy the atmosphere of the event
and cheer on the competitors as they challenge themselves to reach their
goals. We’re really happy to see this tradition carried on by a new generation of
young people who are learning the ropes and testing themselves in the
competition. We wish them all the best of luck!
We look forward an exciting weekend of events that are exhilarating to watch,
and also encourages young people to build on the traditions of our past.
