Penn Valley hosts a rodeo event each year in late Spring and has attracted as many as 5,000 spectators during one of its events. The Penn Valley Rodeo is organized by Penn Valley Community Rodeo Association since 2005. In the 1950s, the Penn Valley Fire Dept. needed funds. George Alan Smith, a local cowboy and heavy equipment operator, came up with the idea of holding a rodeo. George talked Pegar (of Pegar's 'Y') into donating the land, and then he leveled and build the grounds with his D 9 CAT bull dozer. George enlisted the help of friends and relatives on weekends, evenings, and holidays to set posts, build fence and chutes, and put up bleachers. George, a WWII Navy Vet, was the nephew of Jay and Bessie Peacock, owners of the Peacock Ranch (at the top of Pet Hill). In 1951, he married Lynn Margaret Gleason, daughter of Harold & Mildred Gleason who owned the Lazy Valley Angus Ranch, which was the original stage stop between Reno and Sacramento during the Gold Rush. As they built the arena, George and Lynn organized the weekend calf ropings there. Lynn and other ropers' wives put together a refreshment stand, and their children collected pop bottles under the bleachers, turning them in for the refunds. All of this served to work out any problems with the arena before the big event. The first Penn Valley Rodeos featured intermission entertainment provided by local rancher, Larry Filer and his horse, Jim. Larry claimed that he never trained Jim, and that Jim initiated all his humorous antics. Jim would pull the handkerchief out of Larry's back pocket, count, play dead, take a nap and steal the covers, steal Larry's hat, etc. The first rodeo was a success, and it took on a life of its own. The local Fire Department and residents volunteered their time and efforts to help put on the annual event. The Penn Valley Rodeo quickly became "the summer event" for people from all over California to attend.
