Commissioners waive rodeo‑arena fee for Rio Bravo 4 Club, require $50 deposit

Dimmit County Commissioners Court · August 17, 2026

Summary

The court approved a fee waiver allowing Rio Bravo 4 Club to use the Dimmit County rodeo arena for its Nov. 14, 2026 prospect show, keeping a nominal $50 deposit; the club said last year's event drew about 160 participants and supports local scholarships.

The Dimmit County Commissioners Court approved a request from Rio Bravo 4 Club to waive facility fees for a prospect show scheduled for Nov. 14, 2026, while requiring a $50 deposit to cover administrative/legal transitions.

Katrina Longoria, who identified herself as the manager/sponsor for the Rio Bravo 4 Club, said the event draws as many as 160 participants and that proceeds have funded scholarships for graduating seniors at local high schools. Longoria said the club also allows local youth organizations to run the concession stand and return proceeds to those programs.

A commissioner proposed retaining a modest deposit ($50) to remain consistent with prior arrangements; the court moved, seconded and approved the waiver and deposit requirement. The club thanked commissioners and praised the county facility for accommodating the event.

The court recorded the motion as carried; staff noted the fee-waiver pattern will include the $50 deposit for legal purposes.
