Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The bleacher replacement project is for The Odessa Rodeo & Festival which is an annual event which consists of a nationally sanctioned Professional Cowboys Rodeo Association 4-performance rodeo, a carnival with traditional rides, mid-way, and food: a flea market featuring Western wear, jewelry and art: the largest tent in the state of Florida, with a stage and dance floor featuring various types of Country Western dancing, and various food and drink vendors.
