The St. Paul Rodeo community honors Austin Smith, age 30 and a St. Paul Fire Department Volunteer Firefighter, who lost his life while responding to a barn fire on February 3, 2022. Austin was a volunteer in every way, with a strong desire to give back to his community. The St. Paul Rodeo community aims to commemorate Austin's dedication to serving others and has pledged to donate 50 cents to the Austin Smith Foundation for every ticket sold for the July 2, 7:30 pm performance.
Tickets to the July 2 performance are discounted $2 each for all emergency personnel.
The St. Paul Rodeo was proud to contribute significantly to the Austin Smith Foundation in 2023, generating an impressive total of $45,971 through a combination of proceeds from the Hall of Fame auction and ticket sales.
