Welcome to the Official Loggerodeo™ at the Chainsaw Carving Capitol of Washington State and the Pacific Northwest in Sedro-Woolley!! We are celebrating the longest-running 4th of July celebration in Washington State.
Sedro-Woolley will host many activities during the 4th of July celebration, Loggerodeo™, and the longest-running International invitation-only chainsaw carving competition.
Each year there is a Rodeo for Cowboys and Cowgirls for the best all-around points on the circuit. This takes place at the Rodeo grounds at Highway 20 and Polte Road.
The second rodeo is for loggers demonstrating each task a logger is required to perform in their work each day, including pole climbing and Chainsaw Carving. Armed with a chainsaw, axe, and a few tools, “Chainsaw Carvers” whittle an 8-foot high, 3-foot wide piece of Cedar into some of the most fantastic art forms found anywhere. These men and women put on a show for up to 20,000 visitors and tourists each 4th of July. This select group has proven their skills and abilities, becoming national and world champions. The majority of them started as part of the Sedro-Woolley Loggerodeo™ celebration.
