| Hi,
So it looks like I will be moving to the Ponoka area from BC within the next month. I am just getting started in barrel racing/rodeo, and really want to take lessons from a reputable coach, and need to find a good barn with an indoor to keep my horse at.
Also am interested in roping if there is a barn that does a mix of rodeo events?
Or if you have anything else to add about the area, I would really appreciate it! I heard there are barrel races every week at the big arena, so I am quite excited about that! :) |

Location: Alberta | Theres Jody Elliot at Lacombe. He has a very nice facility, he has a heated barn with a heated arena attached plus an outdoor in the summer. He trains cutters, reined cow horses and barrel horses. Im not sure what he charges for boarding. There is also the McCarrols at Camrose if you are looking for roping. Dee Butterfield would be a great person to get lessons from, if she gives private lessons. I have been to a few of her clinics and you will learn a lot from her because she focous' a lot on general horsemanship.
