Posts like this make my heart overflow with joy and pride.. it’s been 6 years since Jake and I embarked on this adventure of running a Boarding Stable and Event Venue. Our community and clients that entrust us to care for their animals and create great events along side them.. we are Blessed 🙏
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your participation in the Black Canyon Donkey Derby! With over 80 participants, wonderful vendors, food trucks, spectators, and more, we had such a fabulous weekend! What a great group of people this b***o community is! Thank you to Jacie, at Deep Canyon Ranch, for a wonderful venue, clean and well-kept stalls, and a safe place for everyone to enjoy the event. Jacie worked so hard to provide a great venue for us and we appreciate her dearly! We are also grateful to our photographers, Janna Lasher, Donna Pierce, and Teresa Marie Photography, for their generosity in volunteering their time to capture this memorable event. We thank Bob Cothern (Black Canyon Trail), for giving an informational presentation for our spectators on the history of the trail itself. It was lovely to have so many vendors set up their booths to give our spectators things to do while cheering on the racers. Thank you to our sponsors, Edward Jones, Sandam Ranch, Oatman B***os, & Forever Home Donkey Rescue. We could not have pulled this off without you. This event truly could not have happened without all of our volunteers. Lisa Smith, from Loco for Long Ears, brought a team of volunteers to assist us on race day, and we are beyond grateful for them! So many people came together to make this 4th annual Black Canyon Donkey Derby a success! If you are not already a part of the Facebook group, "Dusty Donkeys- Arizona's B***o Community," please join! If you click on the tab "media" & "Albums," that is where all of the photographs are being uploaded (still more to come). Please feel free to add your own photos as well! We hope you will join us again next year and bring all of your friends! We have plans to add even more kids' activities, add some extra vendors, and many more ideas are already being discussed!
Thank you all for a GREAT weekend!
