Back in the Arena: Grade Tech Announces 2026 Sponsorship for the Oakley Rodeo and Xtreme Bulls

The stadium lights are prepped and the biggest celebration of grit and heritage in Northern Utah is getting close. Grade Tech Power Services is proud to announce that we are returning as a major sponsor for both the Oakley Independence Day Rodeo and the Oakley Xtreme Bulls standalone tour event.

Sponsoring these historic events is a cornerstone tradition for our company. The professional rodeo circuit represents the exact same values we bring to our utility infrastructure and heavy civil job sites every day: absolute focus, unyielding work ethic, and a deep respect for family and community heritage.

Shaking up the Dirt: Our 2026 Sponsorship Lineup

Grade Tech is maintaining our substantial commitment to the Oakley arena.

Title Presenting Partner of the Oakley Xtreme Bulls

We are returning as the official Title Presenting Partner for the Oakley Xtreme Bulls event. This standalone PRCA tour stop brings the world’s top-ranked bull riders to Utah to go head-to-head with the most aggressive, elite bucking stock in the industry. It is a high-stakes, zero-margin-for-error night that aligns perfectly with the precision and safety focus of our power line and substation excavation operations.

Chute and Saddle Bronc Sponsor

For the multi-day Oakley Independence Day Rodeo, Grade Tech is proud to serve as an official Chute Sponsor and the exclusive sponsor of the Saddle Bronc Riding event. Every time a rider clears the gate in the classic saddle bronc event, they are doing it on dirt backed by Grade Tech grit.

Bringing the Crew: Team Attendance and VIP Treatment

At Grade Tech, we believe in sharing our success with the people who make it happen. Our rodeo sponsorship allows us to provide a world-class weekend for our hard-working crew and their families.

• Elite Ticket Access: Grade Tech has secured 50 rodeo tickets and VIP dinner passes for each night of the sold-out Independence Day event.
• The GT Contingent: Our team will be showing up in force. Armed with company-issued hats and apparel, the Grade Tech crew will be highly visible across the stadium grounds all weekend.
• The Jumbotron Rollout: Keep your eyes on the big screen. Our official stadium video advertisement will run on the Jumbotron throughout the weekend and we will also be highlighted in the official printed event program. This year’s message continues our tradition of honoring the nation’s founding fathers, the blue-collar tradesmen, and the enduring tenacity that keeps the American power grid running.

“We are proud to support this patriotic, family event and to treat our team and their families to good food and good fun,” says Rory Hall. “It is a great way to bring our team together outside of work to enjoy the holiday weekend.”
