MIDLAND -- The Professional Armed Forces Rodeo Association will be collecting donations for the victims of the November 15th Midland train tragedy at the upcoming World Finals Rodeo for military men and women in Midland.

    In fact, 20 percent of the event's ticket sales will be donated to the victims of the train tragedy and their families.

    There will also be a donation collection area inside the Midland County Horseshoe Arena -- where the rodeo will be held.

    The military men and women have been moved by the train tragedy, and the veterans who died and were wounded in the crash.

    With the tragedy in mind, the rodeo will have a special memorial performance by the Lone Star Cowgirls drill team.

    There will also be a tribute banner that everyone can sign at the rodeo.

    The rodeo will be taking place on November 24th and 25th at the Midland County Horseshoe Arena in Midland.
