Good cows, good ground and good people in a fun & friendly atmosphere!
Here's the latest news....

While there has been lots of rain up here in the Chino Valley area, the NACHA show grounds has seen very little. We plan on holding the cutting just as planned. If something should change we will post it on Facebook.
Our food vendor, Martha, with the great Mexican food is moving so we won’t have a food vendor at the show. NACHA will be bringing in donuts for our morning snack and we will be picking up some pizza for lunch time so we can “feed your appetite for cutting”.
See you all there.

Top 5 point earners for each club will qualify. This will allow for riders and owners to better see where they stand by looking at each club's year end point standings.
