The Lake Chelan Rodeo has been held in Lake Chelan since the late 1920s. It was originally held on or around the Fourth of July on the lakefront on the south end of what is now Don Morse Park. In 1954, the rodeo grounds were moved to their present location and rodeos have been held annually at that site for the past 52 years.
