Thank you to everyone who helped us get through 3 days worth of classes in just 2 wild ones.
Our Ross Co kids were so adaptable and still showed off their stuff!

For the remainder of the night, the Main arena will be closed for maintenance. The 2 smaller make up pens will be open however, so please feel free to ride and exercise your horses.

We have kicked off our day!!

We will be running Contesting Classes following the conclusion of the driving classes due to incoming weather. So the Tuesday classes will follow the end of Mondays classes.

We will be taking a 30 minute lunch break after Ranch Riding classes have finished. During the lunch break we will announce our Friend of 4-H, 100% Skillathon members, and the Western, Ranch, and English Championships.

Happy Monday!

We will be starting at 9 am, bit check at 8:30am.

There has been no final decision on that move, but we wanted everyone to be aware.
