Description

Colby Community College is seeking a qualified contractor to supply all rodeo “rough stock” and associated personnel for its three‑day college rodeo event in September 2020. The contractor must provide livestock (bulls and other animals), pick‑up men, bull fighters, serve as arena director, and operate the “neck rope” for timed events. No goats or announcer services are required, as those are already contracted. The RFP does not disclose a budget, leaving pricing to the bidder. Submission is due by July 2, 2020. • Provide all rodeo livestock (bulls, etc.) needed for timed events. • Supply pick‑up men and two bull fighters, and act as arena director/neck‑rope operator. • Manage all timed events for a three‑day rodeo (Sept 18‑20, 2020) with estimated contestant numbers ranging from 20 to 115 per event. • No explicit evaluation criteria or contract type disclosed; bids submitted via mail or email.

Budget estimate

$10,000 – $30,000

The contract involves providing dozens of large livestock (bulls, etc.) plus specialized personnel (pick‑up men, bull fighters, arena director). Assuming average market rates of $500‑$1,200 per bull for a weekend, plus $150‑$250 per staff day, total costs could range from roughly $10,000 for a minimal operation to $30,000 for a fully staffed, high‑volume setup. The estimate also accounts for transportation, insurance, and equipment usage.
