Manuelito Children’s Home welcomes back WildThing Staff Reports
L
ast year’s cancellation of WildThing Championship Bullriding presented a particularly difficult obstacle for Manuelito Children’s Home to overcome. It meant the loss of their biggest, most important fundraiser of the year. The cancellation of a major event such as WildThing Championship Bullriding creates a ripple effect that impacts not only organizers and guests, but also sponsors and local businesses that depend on the support and revenue it generates. That can also affect the bottom line for the entire year. “Due to the pandemic last year, we missed having the bull ride and did not benefit from any of the fundraisers we normally hold,” Manuelito Children’s Home Superintendent Jim Christian said June 22.
