Below is a news release from South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa.
South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa is excited to announce its partnership with the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF). Their mission is to ensure the future of elk, other wildlife, their habitat and American hunting heritage. As part of this partnership, RMEF will proudly sponsor the South Point Arena and serve as the title sponsor for the annual NFR Viewing Party at the property.
Known as “Vegas Cowboy Central,” South Point is home to the most popular NFR viewing party in Las Vegas, making it the highest attended party in the city. Beyond the 10-day NFR event, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation will continue to bring energy and excitement to the Arena throughout the year.
“Becoming a sponsor of the South Point Arena is extremely exciting, and we look forward to our continued collaboration,” said Steve Decker, Chief Revenue Officer of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. “We are eager to take the annual NFR viewing parties to the next level through this great partnership.”
The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation believes that hunting is conservation. They advocate for the right of every citizen to hunt and fish, emphasizing that science-based, state-regulated hunting is crucial for wildlife conservation and management.
“After years of partnering with the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation on different occasions, we know they are an amazing organization which is why we are so excited to make our partnership official as a sponsor of our Arena,” said Ryan Growney, General Manager of South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa. “We know they will also provide a great experience for our guests at our nightly RMEF Viewing Parties during the NFR.”
Celebrating their 40-year anniversary, RMEF and its partners have completed over 14,000 conservation and hunting heritage projects, conserving nearly 9 million acres of habitat. These projects have also opened or improved public access to more than 1.59 million acres of land, with a total project value exceeding $1.6 billion since 1984.
“Partnering with Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation will enhance the Arena experience,” said Steve Stallworth, General Manager of the South Point Arena & Equestrian Center. “We look forward to integrating the RMEF team into the South Point family.”
