🚨2025 DATES ARE HERE🚨

Mark your calendars and make a plan! 2025 will be here before you know it!

This season, we will be offering a few less shows, but no less quality. We hope this change will allow us the opportunity to provide you with:

✅More outstanding judges
✅Larger payouts
✅Bigger prizes

High point winners of the 2024 season will receive their buckles at the April 2025 show (winners TBA).

If you, or someone you know, would like to sponsor our saddle club, please reach out! We would greatly appreciate the support.

We are looking forward to a bigger and better 2025!

We had a great time at our fall fun show! Not only did we see great competition, but we were able to raise over $1500 in cash and supplies for the flood victims of our area.

Thank you to everyone for coming out to spend the day with us, and a special thank you to our 2024 season sponsors! We could not have had a successful show series without you.

Our 2024 buckle winners will be announced and recognized at our first show of 2025! Dates are TBD, but we will have them out by the end of the year.

We have some big plans for next year, and hope that you all will join us for it 🤠
