Labor Day in Dayton - Iowa
Since 1937, Dayton has been the site of a rodeo on Labor Day weekend.

The rodeo features bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, bull riding, calf roping, team roping, steer wrestling, barrel racing, and the wild horse race. The rodeo has generated large crowds and high-quality competitors.
Young and old can be found celebrating the end of summer. It is THE event in Central Iowa.
