Blanco Cowboy Church Spring Series starts March 4th at Noon. Come out and join us for church before hand (starts at 10:00am) and eat lunch and then enjoy the playday. Heck if your daughter and control her horse she can enter. Entry fee is coming to church before hand. Lots of fun for the kids on a Sunday afternoon and will be more than happy to help her out.Last edited by bowhuntertex; 02-06-2018, 08:11 AM.

Almost forgot about this one.
Alamo Area Youth Horse Association (this is a youth rodeo and horse show):
Horse show is Saturday and speed events are on Sunday's. Skipped this one this spring because we missed the 1st one. Will probably enter up in the fall series if it doesn't conflict with other's we are committed to. This looks to be a great little series and will definitely be doing this one in the future.
Takes place at the San Antonio Rose Palace

January 7th Spring Series (missed)
April 8th Spring Series
June 3rd Spring Series (double point show)
September 2nd Fall Series
October 7th Fall Series (double point show)
December 2nd Fall Series

I know for sure we will be at the Lometa Junior Rodeo, Gustine Junior Rodeo, Comanche Junior Rodeo, Mullin Junior Rodeo and Blanket Junior Rodeo. We will do several other play days and barrel racing’s throughout the spring and summer
No one has posted dates yet for any of those
We will also do some team sorting events with Leon River Cowboy Church in EastlandLast edited by aggie2000tx; 02-06-2018, 12:04 PM.

Rodeo is wonderful but I hate to see young kids kids on rough stock. I saw a 17 year old boy in a high school rodeo get paralyzed from the eyes down when he flew off a bareback. It was right in front of me, and I thought what if that were my son? That kid had his whole life ruined, and for what? I never forgot it. Sorry for the negative post.

About 3 years ago my youngest son told me he was not playing anymore baseball like his older brothers did. We were at the ranch hunting when he stated he had something to tell me. He said "Dad I do not want to play baseball anymore, deep in my heart I am a Cowboy and want to rodeo" as he ponded his chest. I leaned over looked him straight in the eye and said son do what you want, I will support you. We have not looked back as he follows the footsteps of his Papa and Great Uncles. We are having a blast.

She's just now getting close to being able to compete on her and we're looking for places to take her.
So far we've found the Suburban Riding Club in Tomball and I heard about a place in Willis. Where can I find more rodeos? Is there an organization that organizes youth rodeos?Last edited by SCREAMINREELS; 02-06-2018, 01:23 PM.
