The Crooked River Roundup rodeo was conceived in the early 1940s when a group of ranchers decided to pool their resources and create an event that would embody all that Crook County had to offer. They wanted to draw on the past and keep their storied cowboy traditions alive. After collecting $100 from dozens of locals and buying 11 acres on the south end of town, the Crooked River Roundup was born.

Initially combined with the Crook County Fair, the Roundup was a true cowboy community event and welcomed competitors from across the West, including those from the nearby Warm Springs tribe.

Each year, the Roundup attracts many of the top professional rodeo competitors in the world. Past winners have included some of the biggest names in rodeo, and the event is well-known for introducing up-and-coming talent.
