Great day to introduce another veteran on our team, Mckenna! This is McKenna’s third year on the Molalla Drill Team. She has been riding for 17 years and loves it all. She is currently going to nursing school, she trains horses, and gives lessons on the side.

McKenna’s first and main partner is Fraser. He is an 8 year old Quarter Horse from Texas. This is Fraser’s third year on the team, and his favorite part is doing flag runs because he gets to stretch his legs and have fun.

Her back up partner is Oakley. She has had Oakley for 12 years and they have done 4-H, OHSET, and Drill together. Oakley is in pre-retirement and is only running flags and doing a couple smaller rodeos for the Drill team this year. Each member on this team has had the pleasure of throwing a leg over Oakley!

Bridgett is a mother of 2 amazing cowboys, Stetsen 16, and Roper 10, they are both always right there willing to help out the team!

Bridgett has been riding horses since before she could walk and have owned horses her whole life. She grew up on a farm outside the Molalla/Canby area, and is currently raising cutting and barrel bred horses. She has now 19 horses at the moment! On her free time is is a reputable dog breeder, been raising Shelties for over 20 yrs and also raises heelers and border collies.

Bridgett is mostly self employed with 3 businesses she started on her own, Fluffy Puppy Haven, BSR performance horses, and Horse Savers Unlimited.

When she’s not working or riding for our team, she competes in barrel racing, team penning, cattle sorting, gaming, and other equine events, but her #1 thing has always been the love of Rodeo. When she’s not riding horses, she enjoys camping, fishing, hunting, traveling, and going on unplanned adventures.

Her main drill horse is Perfection, she is 9 yrs old and has owned her since birth. Don’t let the name fool you, she is not always a perfect princess, but has always been a safe and reliable horse for Bridgett.
