Description
A man on horseback accepts a trophy from a Remuda official . The Malibu Remuda , a two-day celebration of Malibu's culture and heritage held September 27-28 , 1947 , took its name from the corral that vaqueros would use to select a horse for the day . The event featured this impressive display of horses (over 900 riders) on both days , in addition to the circus , a "western bathing beauty contest " aquatic races , and an air show . The Malibu Remuda was sponsored by the Malibu post of the American Legion , and proceeds were intended to fund the building of a local post clubhouse . Although it was billed as the first of an annual event , the tradition would fail to catch on.
