Location: At The End of The Red Dirt Road | While I like the idea of theft, I don't have time to go to prison! Wonder if Martha Stewart will be a good roomie? Several years ago when I was looking to add some excitement to our local "club night" team roping and barrel jackpots, I solicited companies like Farnam, Purina, etc for donations and you would not believe all the stuff that came in for free! You could probably just email them nowadays! We would put in the names of everyone that attended each week and draw a winner for that nights prizes - fly masks, feed, and gift certificates.... you could probably have a prize for everyone if you just did this on your awards night. |

Location: Hammond, WI | It is for the UBRA (United Barrel Racing Association - http://www.ubra.org/). We are always looking for new awards vendors and cool ideas, since one of the big things we are trying to do is give the contestant the ability to choose their own awards!

Location: MN | Hey DashforGold~ I saw you guys were looking on the greatlakesequine's new forum. What kind of stuff have you guys been giving out in the past? I'm familiar with UBRA but am not a member (although I've considered joining!) so I guess I'm not quite sure what kinds of awards you guys have. I like the idea of the TC Fringe shirts. I think they do a good job on them! |

Here is a site with some of the past vendors: http://www.greatlakesequine.com//shoppingspree/index.htm Let me know if you have any other questions!
