Ranch Sorting Jackpot at Horse Lovers Park Y et another impressive event produced by 3P Performance at Horse Lovers Park held on November 29, 30 and Dec 1st. Truly, a great time was had by all. Over 300 teams and 120 head of cattle packed into 3 days of competition. The horsemanship and horsepower combined with, friendship, camaraderie, laughs and of course, lady luck made for a great weekend. The event (an RSNC sanctioned event with the exception of the penning) started off on Friday with a rare team penning jackpot and then two days of ranch sorting competition. There were options for all levels of riders with a total of 11 classes, ranging from a #4 class to the Open/All Levels. This event was one in a series of jackpots where riders are running for saddles and buckles so the heat was on to make it to the Top 10 and increase your points. Also, 3P Performance offered buckles for this weekend’s event to high point riders with a #1 and #2 ranking. The #1 buckle was won by Stan Brooks and the #2 buckle was awarded to Wayne Pacheco. Congratulations to both of these winners!!! Also, a note of appreciation is in order to Wayne and Doretta Pacheco who have been so instrumental in keeping these jackpots going and giving us sorters a place to play and compete. Thank you Wayne and Doretta! As usual for a 3P Performance event, everything ran smooth and the staff did a stellar job. From their announcer, to time keepers, to gate help, sign up staff, the judge and those who managed the cattle, everything ran like clockwork, thank you all so much!!! Without all of you there would be no show. For show results please go to www.rsnc.us. ACTRA Thursdays In Wickenburg! At the Wickenburg/Everett Bowman Rodeo Grounds 935 Constellation Rd.
