The Brehmer Rodeo Company, LLC, will have a rodeo at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 12 and 13 at the Jim Bowie Rodeo Arena here in Bowie.
This rodeo will be sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA), and Brehmer Rodeo Company is providing the stock.
“We worked to keep a PRCA rodeo in Bowie,” said Barney Brehmer, of Brehmer Rodeo Company. “All professional rodeo applications were completed and accepted by the PRCA.”
Brehmer Rodeo is teaming up with Bowie Rural Volunteer Fire Department to put on the event, which will coincide with a fish fry that weekend.
A portion of the proceeds from the ticket sales, along with donated items for a silent auction, will go directly back to the fire department to help purchase needed equipment.
Tickets will cost $10 for adults and $7 for children ages six to 12. Children ages five years old and under are admitted free. For tickets, call Randall Preuninger at 940-841-4277, Ray Jones at 940-366-5352 or Brehmer at 254-592-5372.
New Saint Jo Boy’s Basketball Coach Terry McLennan said the school’s family atmosphere is what prompted him to join the Panther family.
“This is an opportunity to be an important program but also part of a great community,” McLennan said. “I’ve been looking to get back to a small town environment like the one I grew up in and played ball and this should do that.”
McLennan played basketball in Hubbard outside of Waco. McLennan comes to town after being the assistant girl’s basketball coach in Grand Prairie.
McLennan contends he’s a defensive style of coach but says his team will focus on intensity.

After some coaching time in East Texas, Bret Botard will be the new girl’s basketball coach at Bowie.
Botard said it’s a chance to work with Bowie Athletic Director Tyler Price once again. Price was Botard’s assistant when he coached at Nocona.
“I wanted to get back into the area,” Botard said. “It’s a good community.”
Botard graduated high school in 1995 from Del Valle High School, outside Austin, and went to Texas Tech. He started his coaching career in Lubbock followed by returning to his alma mater where he was an assistant for his high school coach.
