FRIENDLY COMPETITIONS
******************
Of course all children will be monitored
on their progress of horsemanship and only be advanced as we feel they are ready. SAFETY is our first priority. We want
our cowpokes to leave here with their confidence level as high as possible! Our cattle are very slow and tame/safe for beginners
under supervision and our horses/ponies are all experienced with cattle so they are very confident around them. If your child
chooses to rope only the roping dummy (fake steer) they do not have to participate in the live animals if they do not
wish to. Its all about having fun!
