A little because we can’t forget to share with you the Champions of our first ever CGRA Corn Hole Tournament! 🎉

Competitors swapped reins for bean bags after the Saturday night banquet and it was nothing but laughs, competition and good times for all ages.

Congratulations to our Co****le Champions: Danie Rairdan and Cassidy Clark 🏆 who earned themselves these custom boards — made by Megan Bergsveinson and generously sponsored by Kinlee Hodgson (H5 Ranches) and the custom regulation bean bags made with love by Cassidy’s Grandma!

Here’s to building traditions as strong as our runs in the arena! 🩵💙

Should we bring the Co****le Tournament back next year!? 👀 Let us know! 👇🏼👇🏼

It’s been one week since the 2025 CGRA Sudden Death Finals wrapped up, and we’re still smiling about all the incredible moments. 🐎✨

This season — and especially Finals weekend — reminded us why we love this sport: the fast runs, the gritty rides, the support from the stands, and most of all, the spirit of the cowgirls who make the CGRA what it is.

We are grateful not only to the many hands helping out behind the scenes — timers, judges, secretaries, stock contractors, pickup men, arena crew, announcers, photographer and the many volunteers it takes to make this all possible — but also to all of our event sponsors. Your continued support is what makes women’s rodeo thrive. 💙💛

We would also like to take the time to recognize a couple of sponsors who added a little something extra to the weekend:
• Thank you to our Pincher Creek All Girl Rodeo for sponsoring the Finalists Wild Rags and to Kountry Sass for creating the incredible custom design, giving each competitor a keepsake to treasure.
• 🐴 Thank you to the Bar P Quarter Horses for sponsoring the Tiny Mites prizes, inspiring the youngest members of our rodeo family.

Last weekend we celebrated champions, recognized our season leaders, and captured memories that will carry forward into 2026. 📸 Scroll through to see group shots of all our finalists and our champions!

As the dust settles on 2025, we’re already looking ahead to 2026. Membership rodeo entries are open, and we can’t wait to kick off another season of celebrating and supporting women in rodeo.

📌 We are also now accepting AGM topics until October 2nd. Members, please submit anything you’d like addressed to collingsjolayne@gmail.com so your voice can be part of shaping the season ahead.

💡 Plus, a heads-up! We will also be voting in new board members at the AGM, start thinking about how you or someone you know might step into a leadership role.

Here’s to closing an incredible 2025 and starting an even stronger 2026 season together! 💫
