Every Fourth of July, paniolos and spectators from across the islands make the trip to the Oskie Rice Arena in Makawao, Maui for a weekend of rodeo and celebration. The rodeo started in 1956 and today, the family of the original organizers continue the Upcountry Maui tradition with the Makawao Stampede Rodeo.
