At The Rodeo

One of the most exciting of the Christmas attractions in Gisborne promised to be the big rodeo at the Showgrounds. Most elaborate and thorough arrangements were made by the organisers, and an exciting and entertaining programme of events was presented. But for both performers and the public, the occasion was marred by the weather, which developed into a steady downpour as the day progressed. Pictures on this page were taken by Mr R. Buscke, of Te Karaka.
