Our sponsors help us make dreams come true.

Example:
Since day 1 Ruddman Ranch has supported our How To Be A Cowboys Series.

We've had 9 participants in the past two years with 4 earning their spurs.

Recently one of our spur holders expressed intrest in Ranch Sorting and when we saw a sorting was being prodiced in our area we reached out to Emily Rudd Ruddman Ranch and asked if she was atteneding and if she would allow Daniel Patterson to tag along.

Well Dan has found the sport that he wants to master and we want to thank Emily for always rising to the occasion.

Dan did wonderfulnfor his first time in the sorting pen on a horse that he has had limited rides on.

Also, we have to give a shoutout to TA for being a steady mount for everything that he gets tasked to do.
