Brookman Rodeo was started by the late Marvin Brookman in the early 50’s.  He put a herd of horses together while working with his father on the CBC’s. He had 2 daughters, Reita and Cleita.  His daughter Reita married Jim Reinhart and together they worked on the ranch and helped out with the rodeo business.  Reita timed rodeos and was active in the business until the time of her death in May of 2007.  Jim continues to reside at the ranch and helps behind the scenes for Brookman Rodeo.  Reita’s daughter, Cathy and husband, Dave Wieferich took over the reins managing the rodeo company  when Marvin suffered from a stroke in July 2002.  In July 2005, Marvin Brookman was inducted into the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame in Colorado Springs, CO.  He passed away in January 2006.

Marvin raised 99% of his bucking horses from the sires Alimony, Bar Fly, Iron Sides, Double Deck, Medicine Man, and Rough Water.  He raised approximately 30-40 colts per year and his breeding program continues on, producing great buckers.  Dave & Cathy will continue on with the quality of blood lines, as well as the sound, production, and all other areas of rodeo to make it great family entertainment.

Dave & Cathy have 3 children, LaTasha, Tesa, and Tate.  They are active in helping run cattle from the arena, sorting timed event cattle, helping drive for the feed crew, and keeping mom and dad busy.
