Dakota Youth Rodeo Series Ribbon Roping Champs!

Jade and Jory with their Ribbon Roping Buckles! For those of you not familiar with rodeo, Ribbon Roping is a team event that consists of a roper (Jade) and a runner (Jory)! Jade must rope the calf and dismount her horse (similiar to the calf roping) and Jory runs to the calf and grabs a piece of the ribbon that has been tied to the calf's tail and then runs back to the roping boxes to the judges. Jory cannot take a piece of the ribbon until Jade is touching the calf. It is a really fun event to watch and can be quite funny although, sometimes dangerous too!

Jade and Jory did very well this year in the Dakota Youth Rodeo Series and ended up winning the year end buckles! Way to go guys!
