KEEPING UP w/the JONES' CO-ED WEEKEND
This event is based closely on the same premise as our popular COWGIRL WKND Event, but this weekend adventure is designed for co-ed teams comprised of
1 MALE + 1 FEMALE, competing against other co-ed teams,
in a series of timed/speed events and cattle challenges.
Teams can be husband/wife; bro/sister;
father/daughter; mother/son; bestfriends/cousins.... you get the idea.... but must be 1 MALE + 1 FEMALE.
Much like COWGIRL WKND, some events will require
 4 people and those teams will be randomly drawn
to form a team of "4" for some events....
that's where the "Keeping up w/the Jones' " comes into it!
Arrival day will be Friday morning, with the first competition beginning Friday evening.  The arena events take place
Saturday, followed by an awards ceremony and dance.
Then Sunday morning, we'll enjoy a morning Trail Ride, with Cowboy Church along the trail.
Registration is STILL OPEN
$150 per TEAM (of 2)
We have a limited amount of hook-ups and stalls
available on a 1st pd, 1st assigned basis.
