PERFORMANCE REPORT
Saddled Up & Ready to Compete!

WEITZ – Performance Reporter
ow that spring is about to start everybody is getting into their second semester rodeos. For region X we only have one more region rodeo left. The finals. The finals are the most competitive region rodeo of the year. Anything could change with some people only having a point separating each other. Only taking ten spots to state is so competitive in region X, with everyone having that vengeance to make it to state or win the region. Wanting to win takes a lot of work, for rodeo kids should know. Taking care of your horses is a lot of a bigger job than people think. Having to keep them in shape and have them tuned up to do the best of their ability takes hours of your day. Something that also gets in the
way of this huge responsibility especially for me is school. With school you aren't home most of the day and then have loads of homework when you get home, even on the road you will have homework to do. Not only does homework get in the way but also the multiple sports I do. When I get home at 7pm with my whole body hurting from track and tennis, I still have to turn the lights on and practice. Rodeo takes a lot of want, and having want is what makes you win. One fun event coming up for region X is the rodeo prom! It is a fun rodeo with your friends when the rodeo prom happens; everybody looking nice and having a great time. The spring is one of the busiest times for Jr High and High School rodeos. Before we know it state will be here and everyone will be ready to go. Just be saddled up and ready to compete!
