State Maintenance Rodeo

Details about the 2027 event will be coming in the fall.
 
Get ready for one of the most anticipated events of the year, the TRAPS Maintenance Rodeo, held in conjunction with the TRAPS Institute! This premier showcase celebrates the outstanding skills and dedication of maintenance crews from across Texas. Competitors will demonstrate their expertise across challenges ranging from truck-and-trailer maneuvering to plant identification, highlighting the precision, teamwork, and professionalism that keep our parks thriving.

More than just a competition, the Maintenance Rodeo is a chance to connect, share knowledge, and celebrate the vital work of our park operations professionals. Join us for a day of skill, spirit, and Texas-sized camaraderie! Lunch will be provided.

The top 5 contestants or teams per event in each region, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th place winners, are eligible to compete in the state rodeo.
*Note: a city may have multiple participants entered at the state rodeo, provided they qualify at their regional rodeo. 

Thank you to our 2026 Rodeo Sponsors!

See you in Irving in February 2027! Stay tuned for Institute details.
