Spring has sprung and so has RSNC! Producers; shows and members are popping up all over just like leaves on the trees. I have been extremely busy this spring visiting with new producers and scheduling new events all around the country. In addition, I have had the opportunity to travel to a lot of shows and help host five introductory clinics in the last seven weeks. I would like to thank the producers and contestants for all of their very positive feedback about RSNC and the progress of the association. We are just a few months away from our National Finals and a few hundred new members away from 5,000. With your help, we can reach that goal and I promise we will throw a party at the Finals like none other. The interest is out there and we proved it again right here in my home town of Fort Collins, Colorado. Last year we blew the doors off of a membership drive with 91 beginners in a clinic. This year we turned around and asked each of those new beginners to invite their friends and we literally exploded the sport with 151 in the clinics and 374 teams in the RSNC sanctioned event on the following day! I would like to welcome the new members and thank Aaron Ralston, Mike Hansen, Jim Crossey, Mike O’Brien, Alan Kirkbride, Van Gemmill Gene Degroot and the Wolfe boys for orchestrating a series of nine 9 very well run clinics all in one day. If you haven’t reserved your stalls, motels or RV spots for the Finals yet please do so. They are filling up very fast. You can call Charlene for stalls and RV spots at (580) 761-5249 and the host hotel is the Rodeway Inn at (580) 226-1250 with an RSNC rate of $52 per night. In addition to lots of Ranch Sorting, we have planned a week of fun and educational activities for both contestants and the entire family. You can sign up for a trip to the casino, a shopping spree in Ardmore or a boat party on Lake Murray. Cowhorse trainer We are just a few months away Aaron Ralston, World Champion from our National Finals and and Reinsman saddle maker Dale reining trainer Tim Lynch Martin will each be hosting a few hundred new members clinics throughout the week! The points race is Hot, Hot, Hot! If you need to see where you are away from 5,000. standing, go to www.rsnc. us, click on “points” at the top of the page and then click on your state. It will show where you stand in the state extravaganza and the sort for the Reinsman saddles points race which ends at the National Finals with 18 saddles and lots of prizes up for grabs. Your goal is to be in the top 20 in your rating category from your state to be eligible for saddles and prizes. If you are lucky enough to be in the top 3 in your category in your state, you will get to represent your state as a team for the state extravaganza with 12 of those saddles for just that class. Each team member can pick one partner and draw one partner within their team. The top three states get prizes with the top two states winning six saddles each! This is building to once again be the largest event in the history of the sport. Horse TV will be filming all week along with Aaron Ralston host of “The Ride” on RFD TV. Each and everyone of you are welcome to help us celebrate the sport by competing in events for brand new beginners, intermediate and experienced riders. Even if you have never been to an RSNC event you are welcome at our National Finals. Saddle up and come on over.

If you use two hands or switch hands at any time during the run, the team is disqualified. •Rated Youth Division This division is for all youth 18 or below with a rating of 1 or higher. It will be like all other divisions with a pick 4 and draw 1 or draw up to all 5. Youth will ride with each other in this division. •Beginner Youth/Adult This division is for #1 rated youth 13 or under only. This will be a Ranch Hand division where the youth sorts and an adult or upper rated contestant works the gate. It is a pick 4 and draw 1 or draw up to all 5. •Olympic 3 Man Sort Hey Sorters! This is a new one that simulates perfectly gate sorting in the corrals at the ranch with a 3 man competitive flair. Three pens are used with two gates and 3 riders. The time will start when one of the 2 riders to the right of the judge crosses the start foul line. The 1st number called will always sort to the judge’s right side. From there on, the cattle will sort rotating to the left and right pens in correct number sequence. This is a 3-man ranch sort with no designated gate persons or requirements on who sorts or how the team members rotate sorting or holding gates. •Double Back Reverse Sadie Hawkins Here is a new one for ya’, how about a twist on your typical sort. How many times have you, well, mistakenly sorted in reverse order? Ok, so the announcer calls number 6. The team must sort cattle to the opposite pen and at some point start sorting in reverse order the same cattle back into the original pen. The kicker is only the cattle that are successfully sorted back to the original pen count. If the correct numbered cow starts across the line but doesn’t completely clear before reversing back the other way, that cow does not count and the reverse must begin. Sound ok so far? Oh yes and we added Sadie Hawkins; please tell me you know about Sadie Hawkins. It’s where the girls ask the guys to dance. Should be a mad rush for those prime male ranch sorters. This will be a pick 4-draw one or draw all 5. All guys that are picked at least once must enter the draw once. No guy can be picked more than 4 times. •Biggest rule for the weekend No whining, complaining or sulking. All caught doing any of these infractions will be fined dunks into the water trough!!!! Supervised by the camp boss. Class Signup Your time is just as valuable as ours and we want to do everything possible to make this happen. One of the ways that will help us to stay on schedule is to close the books on the first class of the day the night before. Doing this, our WONDERFUL secretaries can put the teams in, draw up the class and post it on the wall that night for all to see. Remember, we do have some members that have the same name so if you would put your state next to your name it will help us to make sure that we have the right person entered on a team. This could create the wrong handicap for your team and we want to make sure that you have the correct amount of seconds to sort.

Horsemanship - Tim Lynch If you are even faintly familiar with Reining, you will know of Tim Lynch. We are proud to announce that Tim has volunteered his time to RSNC to share his experiences and knowledge of horses. And trust me, he has the knowledge. Tim has had a 25 year career as a trainer focusing primarily with Reining Horses. He has won five World Titles both in the National Reining Horse Association as well as various other breed associations. Tim was a top competitor in NRHA, AQHA and APHA events earning many credits to his name. Four Reserve World Championships, An NRHA Reserve Derby Championship, several Futurity Championships and has been a finalist in dozens of National and World class events. Tim has spent 10 years and over 35 trips to Europe, Japan and Mexico as a NRHA judge as well as conducting horsemanship clinics not only in these countries but Venezuela and Brazil as well. Traveling to many countries, one is not required to learn the foreign languages but Tim is unique. He speaks both German and Spanish fluently and has conducted clinics in each of these languages. Tim is not only known for his expertise in other countries but also the United States as he has given clinics in 42 of our own wonderful 50 states. Due to a spinal cord injury that caused Tim’s career to take a different direction, he now is currently the General Manager of the Hardy Murphy Coliseum and lives with his wife, Tracy, on their ranch in a neighboring town Marietta Oklahoma. We are thankful to have Tim conducting this clinic for us and trust me; you WON’T want to miss it. 2.

Cattle reading skills - Aaron Ralston “Launched in 2008, cow horse productions and Aaron Ralston are dedicated to the preservation and promotion of the traditions and artin-handling of the working ranch cowboy, both in and out of the arena. Raised on his family’s ranch in western Colorado, he was taught to respect the lifestyle and to take pride in being a “Real” cowboy. The song chorus,”Don’t call him a cowboy, until you see him ride,” could have been the theme song of his childhood. He’s proud of the accomplishments he’s had in the arena roping, reining, cow horse, ranch sorting, but “titles mean nothing if you’re not part of something beneficial to a greater purpose,” says Ralston. The Ranch Sorting National Championships has developed the balanced environment of horsemanship/ stockmanship, friendship, and family while carrying on the traditions of the American cowboy. As the cowboy lifestyle becomes preserved more and more through recreation, the RSNC keeps stockmanship available to the “Real” Cowboys at heart. He says he is excited to be a part of something so close to his own heart. Ralston has taken his ranching roots to much success in the competition arena. Some of his highlights include leading Team USA to a gold medal at the 2006 world equestrian games in Aechen, Germany while taking the bronze medal in the individual. With many regional and national titles in the reining world, Aaron has begun to acquire titles and finalists in the reined cowhorse world. Riding Spendin Peptos Money, Ralston rode to the novice horse derby championship at the Circle Y Ranch Derby in San Angelo, Texas. You will find Aaron dividing his competition time with his RFD-TV show The Ride with Aaron Ralston.

An unbelievable 151 people signed up for clinics on Saturday, March 20th in Fort Collins, CO! That is in spite of a huge snow storm that hit our state the day before and prevented even more from coming. Last year, this campaign attracted 91 new members and this year that amazing number looked small. RSNC president Dave Wolfe said he started his campaign at the Colorado Horse Expo with a booth to promote the association and the clinics. There was lots of interest generated from many asking how they could get involved. The clinics were the perfect answer and an ice breaker to help introduce new contestants. But that isn’t all he did. He said he got on the phone and personally encouraged over 400 members to invite a friend to attend. It is what RSNC is all about. The Association has forgone membership fees to intrigue new contestants to give this sport a try and when the doors get opened like that, the contestants show up. And show up they did. The clinics started at 8:30 on Saturday morning with 3 different sorting pens set up for 3 clinicians and 3 different clinics. There were 15 sorters signed up for each clinic and they received 2 hours of instruction and hands on sorting techniques from their instructors. Gene Degroot and Mike Hansen each had a group to work with and Logan and Kason Wolfe worked with a great group of kids who were extremely excited about the sport. Then came round two! At 11 am a whole other wave of sorters showed up for their turn in the clinics. This time Dave Wolfe, Alan Kirkbride and Jim Crossey took a turn at introduicing the sport to the onslaught of new contestants. Then at 1:30 came round number May-June 2010 3 with more trailers horses and ranch sorters eager to learn about our sport. By this time it was obvious that the huge CSU arena and 3 sorting pens were an absolute must because the entire facility was full. Mike Hansen, Van Gemmill and Mike O’Brien finished up the clinics for the day with a friendly competition of who could cheer the success in their arena on the most. With out question there was excitement in the air all day simply because there was such a huge turn out of eager riders ready to jump in and get involved. RSNC’s growth is also attracting top clinicians like Aaron Ralston. Aaron produces “The Ride” on RFD-TV. He agreed to team up with us to promote the CSU event and he was so impressed by our sport that we are now making plans to duplicate the clinics and event at several other locations across the United States. The cameras were rolling at CSU so we will all be looking forward to exposure of RSNC on “The Ride” on RFD TV early this fall. In the midst of all of the ranch sorting clinics Aaron agreed to host an advanced cow horse clinic of a limited number of contestants. When RSNC spread the word that clinic was filled on the first day. There is always room for all of us to learn more and top clinicians like Aaron are seeing that ranch sorting is literally bringing hundreds of new contestants to the cow horse industry. On Saturday night a huge pot of Chile was cooked up and contestants got to set around an authentic chuck wagon and listen to RSNC sorter Mickey Plemmons sing and play his guitar. It was truly and enjoyable and relaxing opportunity to take a break from a very busy day. But that was only for about and hour and a half because at 7 pm the beginner sort class was starting up in the big arena. There were 72 teams of beginners sorting with beginners and for the first time ever all 3 arenas were used at the same time for one class. Much to everyone’s amazement the entire 1st round was complete in less than and hour! It was a perfect end to a perfect day. Sunday started at 8am with cowboy church hosted by Harold Daniels of Fellowship of Christian cowboys. Then at 9:00 the games began and ran non stop all day right up to 6pm with the last of 374 teams competing for an overwhelmingly successful weekend. As quoted by President Dave Wolfe. “If you want May-June 2010 a large crowd at your events all you have to do is go the extra mile to get them there. The interest in Ranch Sorting is greater than any other new equine sport in the country and all you have to do is let your efforts be rewarded by marketing correctly to everyone in your community and by picking up the phone to make some always appreciated personal invitations.” 151 in the clinics and 374 in the competition says it all.

Thanks to the new software provided by RSNC the event ran smoothly with no timing or scoring problems for all four shows. Most of the contestants, and now, new members had never ran in a RSNC event before the show and were happy to be able to do so in a warm, indoor arena in their home state. Many are penners who also are now enjoying the challenge of ranch sorting. Dave Schreiner, whose first RSNC event was the National Finals last year (3rd in graduated rookie) said that it’s just great to have an indoor place to chase cows during the long winter months so we keep our horses and ourselves tuned up and ready for the summer. The cattle were challenging at first but as the event moved on more and more teams were bringing in fast times. The impressive thing during the show is that 23 different riders earned points and you were never sure who was going to end up on top. As one of our favorite riders says after a few beers,”It just don’t git no gooder than this!” Owner Sheryl Chism says that they will hold 2 more double shows so that we can get as many people qualified for the National show down in Ardmore, OK at the Hardy Murphy Coliseum from June 28-July 3rd. Her husband Jeff adds,” We want to get a good size caravan heading that way to represent our state. We may not have the most people but we would like to make some noise.” We will have the State Championship finals at our Ranch on October 23 at 11 am. Chism also wants to stop by the Jesse Chisholm Museum while in Oklahoma to see if his heritage is part of the famous Chisholm Trail. Dates for their upcoming shows are May 15-16th, June 5-6th, Aug 7-8th with the State Finals on Oct 23rd. Anyone new to the sport or veterans from other states are more than welcome to come and whoop it up the Ranch. Call Sheryl with any questions or visit chismtrailranch.com for more information and remember to keep Ranch Sorting America’s #1 equine family sport! Professional cowboy and entertainer, Steven Gutenberger performs for the sorters after the event. OK, it was a long day. Isiah making it happen. Judge Rodney makes sure all is fair and just in the arena. Sara Schreiner and Daryl Schraeder are proving that you have to trust your partner. Jeff Chism and Ken Davids are getting it done.

With a forecast of rainy weather, the event was changed to their indoor arena and was an overwhelming success in sorting, friendship, and fun. A lot of interest was shown in the Beginner Ranch Hand class with 62 teams. We had many new enthusiastic RSNC members like Roger Mott with his own cheering section that kept us entertained, and Bruce Martin, competing in his first event, had not realized he had made the final go and had already unsaddled, but when his name was called he was generously furnished a horse by Randy Peterson to go out and win his first paycheck placing fourth. With a lot of cheering and support from everyone, the top spot in the class was taken by Lisa White (her first win) and Annette Lee. Congratulations! When we came to the Masters, everyone was on their feet cheering. Talk about close calls and lots of action, the Masters held up to their name with the winning team being Larry Newport and Victor Jones. Excitement built and things got fast and furious in the #8 HC with only seconds separating the first, second, and third places heading into the final go. But in the end no one could catch up with the perfect score of 30 head made by Annette Lee and Larry Newport. Our youth were great sports patiently waiting on us older folks to move over so they could have their turn in the spotlight. Dusty Morris took home top honors with Cody Uber coming in second. We want to give special kudos to the parents and grandparents who take the time and effort to haul their children to these events. Ranch Sorting is a family affair and the more we can promote our future stars the better. All the classes were very competitive being won by only one head or just seconds. It’s friendly competition like this that keeps everyone interested and excited all day long and wanting to come back for more. We were very pleased to have Vince and Annette Lee riding in the RSNC again. With their sorting clinics at CPH and their encouraging words and tips along the way, they have helped many of us improve. It was also great to see Travis Cummings back in the saddle again after recovering from an injury. All of us would like to compliment our two new participants in the sorting event. We appreciate first-time judge, Dennis Gordon, who did an outstanding job – and Susan Yeager who stepped up to the microphone to help relieve Rowdy towards the end of the day. Good job, Y’all!! We feel our show was a success due to the help of Manager, Jimmy Goyer, Announcer, Rowdy Fewell and Judge, Dennis Gordon who kept things flowing without any disruptions. All this could not have been possible without Rex Cooper, our hardworking friend and right-hand man. Or without our friends Jim and Susan Yeager, Jim and Millie Van Sickle (photographer), Janet Jackson, Randy Peterson, Debbie Grubb and a host of others who helped us before, during and after the event. We hope to see you and the sunshine on May 8th.
