This Saturday at the 3rd Annual Racing for Our Heroes run a small money bag like this full of hundreds and twenties went missing out of our bag at the sign up table. I know we'll probably never get it back and I'm sure no one knows who or where it went, but it 100% disappeared from the bag while it was sitting beside my chair at the sign up table. I guess I'm posting this for a couple reasons... 1 in case someone saw or knows something they can hopefully find it in their heart to let me know. 2 so everyone will be extra careful with their things in the future. Lock everything up and keep your eyes on your things. 3. To let you all know that this was probably the last race that Barrels of Fun LLC will be having at least for a long time. This was a HUGE loss that has set us back thousands of dollars. Although there are a lot of honest people and I still believe our barrel racing community in a whole is amazing I am so disappointed that this happened at this race. Thankfully there was enough in another bag that we had hidden to cover most of the payout for the weekend. I'm not posting this for pity or sympathy. Just so everyone will be more aware and to tell you all thank you so much for your support of our races in the past. My mom and I have thoroughly enjoyed every one we've ever had and every one of you we've met along the way. I'm so thankful for all of the friends we've been able to make through all of this. I do want to say I know 100% that it wasn't one of my workers that has it. They are all fantastic, amazing human beings and a part of my family. They've been so great through all of this. I hope everyone had a great weekend and it was so good seeing all of you again. Sending love and prayers that whoever has it needed it more than us and will use it for something good 🙏
