1) Rope every night, sometimes on 3 different horses!
2) Rope the dummy every day!
3) Work hard in the practice pen!
4) Have two parents, two younger brothers (occasionally a grandpa) willing to push calves for you!
5) Work through the frustration and tears (at times)!
6) Parents willing to haul you to rodeos!
A STATE CHAMP!! Yes, that is correct, Jade won the 2012 ND Jr. High Rodeo Division Breakaway Championship! We are super proud of her! She now goes on to compete at the National Jr. High Rodeo Finals in Gallup, NM June 24th to June 30th! And so the practicing continues...
Jade and her Ribbon Roping Partner, Keenan Kvamme, finished 4th in the state, which also qualifies them for Nationals (the top 4 in each event go on to Nationals). They had a great season as well! Congrats Jade & Keenan!! Go get em' at Nationals!!
