Kendall Auto Idaho is proud to support the Caldwell Night Rodeo (CNR) — celebrating its incredible 101st year as one of the Top 5 Large Outdoor Rodeos in the country! Held under the arena lights in Canyon County, this high-energy event draws over 50,000 rodeo fans from across the country for five nights of elite competition, community pride, and family fun.
The rodeo doesn’t just bring thrills — it gives back. Proceeds support local nonprofits, youth programs, and scholarships, and we’re honored to partner with CNR in their mission to make a lasting impact right here at home.
