*** "Spot Me In A Crowd" Memorial Ride-A-Buck Class
Annually beginning 2010 at the November show, we hold a special, fun class in memory of "Spot" to benefit Pattison's Academy. The winner will be entrusted for a year with a beautiful traveling trophy, and will receive 40% of the monies collected, as well as a beautiful sash ribbon to commemorate the the occasion.
Description: This is an Open class consisting of Walk-Trot-Canter. Riders can be Western or English. This is a bareback class, as in no saddles or bareback pads permitted.
Rule and Regulations: Entry fee for this class is a $15. A $10 bill will be placed under one thigh, and a $5 bill under the other. However, any and all donation amounts will be accepted. The bills CANNOT be taped, glued, or attached in any way to the rider or the rider's clothing. After both bills fall, the rider is out, and the rider/horse team is excused to the center of the arena until a winner is determined. The last rider/horse team remaining with a bill still under the rider's thigh, after walk-trot-canter-halt-back in both directions, wins. That rider's name and year will be engraved on the traveling trophy and will be awarded during the Tall Pines year-end awards ceremony. The trophy must be returned the next year on or before the November show.
Of the monies collected, 10% will go toward the ribbon for next year, 40% will go to the winner, and 50% will go to Pattison's Academy. In addition to the trophy and the money, the winner will also receive a beautiful commemorative sash ribbon.
When the entries get too numerous to hold just one class, it will be divided into a youth and an adult division. The winner from the youth division and the winner from the adult division will then have a ride-off. The winner of the ride-off will win the trophy.
*** REMEMBER: If you are riding for year-end awards, you do not begin to accumulate points UNTIL you become a member. If you plan on showing with us even a few times, you probably want to become a member to begin to rack up those points! We do not go back and count points for shows prior to becoming a member, but we WILL count points for the day you sign up. See our membership page for annual fees.
Pre-Register: $10.00 per class / Day of Show: $15.00
Office Fee: $5.00
