Congratulations to the Barack Alpha Ryders — B.A.R.!
We came to the 2026 Imperial Session in Tampa, Florida and once again showed what dedication, teamwork, unity, and consistency can do. This year, our Mounted Patrol Unit was honored with:

🏆 Court of the Year – Daughters
And when we look back at where this journey started, we have so much to be proud of:
2022 – 2nd Place
2023 – No Competition
2024 – 1st Place Best Dressed AND 1st Place Best Performance
2025 – 1st Place Best Performance
2026 – Largest Unit Daughters AND Court of the Year Daughters
What a journey it has been!
To everyone who supported the Barack Alpha Ryders this year and throughout the years since 2022 — THANK YOU. Whether you cheered us on, encouraged us, traveled with us, shared a post, or simply believed in what we were building, your support has been a part of this journey.
Every year we have continued to grow, improve, show up, and represent Barack Court No. 233 with pride. We receive these awards but we know we did not get here alone.
Congratulations, Ryders! Enjoy this moment. We earned it.
And as always…
B.A.R. — WE SET THE BAR HIGH, SO YOU HAVE TO KEEP UP!
