Flag Carriers play an integral part in the Cle Elum Roundup.  You allow us to honor and recognize the our generous sponsors by flying their flag high during Grand Entry and other times throughout the performance.  There are also several parades throughout the summer that you are invited to participate in.

We will hold practices throughout the month of July at the Washington State Horse Park in Cle Elum, the home of the Cle Elum Roundup. With our final practice on the Friday of Roundup.  Rodeo performances are on the last Friday and Saturday of July.
