he Cold Lake winter Team Cattle Penning and Ranch Sorting series will be starting Tuesday November 2nd, 2010. This year we will be Cattle Penning on Sunday evenings and Ranch Sorting Friday nights. Sunday setup and registration will be at 5:00pm and we will start at 6:00pm, every fourth sunday of each month will be a jackpot (see flyer at bottom of page). Friday setup and registration is at 6:00pm and start time is at 7:00pm. Everyone is expected to help and do their part and it is all volunteer. The cost varies whether you are a member of the ag society or not, but is very afforadable and fun. When the temps. dip below -20 all events will be cancelled.
night when you arrive your name is place in a bucket for the number of times you want to ride. Say you want to ride three times, your name is drawn three times and put with two other people. Then there is three go rounds. Points are awarded to individuals and tallied at the end of the season. The points are as follows, 3 for first, 2 for second 1 for third and 1 for participating. At the end of the season we usually have a banquet and prizes. In the 2010,2011 season there will be no points for Ranch Sorting to assist those who have not sorted before (also see flyer at the bottom of the page).
o even if you have never penned or sorted before come on out and join us. It is a place to learn and gain experience. Everyone is happy to help and answer any questions you may have. You will not be tossed in a snow bank if you don’t pen your cow.
