In Beauty

it’s time to update our cowgirl look with the latest fashion trends in makeup. Two opposing spring trends are in the air. Much of the winter’s trends are being carried over into spring in a subdued form including metallic eyes and red lips. However, if you want a completely fresh look, forget the red lips and go with the new soft, sun-kissed look that is pink and peachy. Coming out of winter dryness, skin needs special care to achieve the natural look. Work at hydrating your face to get your skin as close to perfect as possible. Following a good skin-conditioning regimen, apply foundation thickly focusing on the center of the face. The trick is to create the perfect “nude” can-vas that a hint (or a pop) of color can be added to. lip colors vary this season. if you love red lips and always tend toward red, stick with it. However, if you are ready for something new, try the new rosy or nude lips. Pink is universally becoming to women as long as you pick a pink with complementary undertones to your skin. one or two shades darker than your lips is a good nude lip color. Cheeks this spring are imitat-ing the sun-kissed and rosy natu-

ral glow. Apply bronzer under your cheekbone and continue with a coral or plum blush on the cheek. don’t forget to smile while apply-ing your blush. Not only do cheek colors need to look natural, but the location needs to look natural too. eye colors are focusing on pas-tels in keeping with the clean look of spring. Metallic, smoky eyes are still very popular in light gold, green, and silver. Before applying eye shadow, apply concealer or cream eye shadow to encourage a long lasting affect without smudg-es. For a fresh and natural metallic eye, apply lightly to add just a hint of color. one area of the face that cow-girls should not forget this season is the brows. Brows are going thick and brushed up. Choose a brow or eyeliner pencil one to two shades lighter than your brow to fill inyour brow with extra color. if you don’t go with the new thick brows, remember to keep your brows well groomed. To achieve these new trends in makeup, check out Cowgirl dirt’s Rawhide organic Facial serum, deep sea Masque, Powder Foun-dation, Concealer, and silverado Cream eye shadow. every cowgirl featured needs cowgirl makeup.

Manicures for the Cowgirl?

In Beauty

www.robinmoses.com

glamming up your nails Cowgirl style...

looking for a change in your style, but not sure what? French manicures have been in style for years, but lately nails have become anything goes.

We happened upon a blogspot that featured cowgirl/Western nail art. it’s featured at www.robinmoses.com

The nail designs feature a bucking bronc, red check-ered tablecloth with barbwired, cowboy boots, cow-boy hats and more. We know many cowgirls don’t have the time to get their nails done, or the cowgirl lifestyle has too many demands for polished nails. But for those of you who want to dress it up a bit, check out the nail art below. Kick it up!

Atfirstglance,MallorieHaleymayseemlikejustanother pretty face. No doubt about it, the girl turns heads but once she opens her mouth to sing you’ll soon discover this is one beautiful

young lady with the talent to back it up. Her exceptional voice, remarkable writing chops and musi-cianship will keep you looking and listening. Mallorie was born in Winner, south dakota where it quickly became apparent that this little girl had stars in her eyes. Mallorie began a lifelong journey to a career as a country music recording artist by singing the National Anthem at National Finals Rodeo (NFR) in las Vegas, Nevada. since then there’s been no looking back. Her exceptional vocal skills have given her the opportunity to sing to thousands of fans opening for numerous well known artists including george Jones, Crystal gayle, deirks Bentley and Kenny Chesney to name a few. Mallorie continued paying her dues and honing her skills while singing at festivals and rodeos all over the Mid-west in addition to the Texas Rangers baseball games and the Johnnie High Music Review. Notably, she won ed Mc-Mahon’s internet star search in 2002 and advanced to the Hollywood round of American idol in 2009. “she’s wow!

With great vocals-great song!” says Mary J. Blige. demonstrating great promise as a writer and an unwav-ering determination to achieve her ultimate goal of be-coming a recording artist, Mallorie made the move to

Nashville in 2007. she quickly developed strong relationships within Music Row’s tight nit community of songwriters. she also caught the attention of several music business executives. “Mallorie possesses a unique yet familiar vocal style-it’s intrigu-

ing and fresh, but still she stays true to the genre. she’s truly the complete package and i am proud to be able to work with her!!” commented Porter. Multiplatinum pro-ducer, Carson Chamberlain remarked, “she has a unique sound that is refreshing in today’s climate.” With a sultry yet traditional vocal style combined with re-markable writing skills not to mention undeniable beauty inside and out, Mallorie Haley is everything country music listeners have been waiting to hear. in the words of simon Cowell, “she’s fearless, great fun, great energy! i like her!” enough said!

Winning Ed McMahon’s Internet Star Search in 2002 and advanced to the Hollywood round of Ameri-can Idol in 2009. “She’s wow! With great vocals-great song!”

drifTwood...

spring has always been a season for pastel colors and light colored fashions, but this spring you can add bright colors to your pastel color wardrobe.

Fashion designer, Meredith lockhart says, “My forecast for spring Fashiontrendsleantowardtheromanticlooksofflowyskirtsandtops that are feminine. i love the look of a layered maxi skirt and a wellfittedtoporabrightlycoloredruffledtopwithastraightskirtin a neutral tone. A favorite thing of mine for spring is to start with an off white fabric or buckskin and add tons of embroidery in bright springy colors then add, for instance, a handkerchief hem skirt and atopoftheFlamingo(pinkishcoral)underajacket.Allfinishedoffwith a great decorative belt, boots and jewelry with some turquoise in it! A touch of bling on the top or the skirt with swarovski crystals is a must! The accessory forecast is for colors such as sagebrush, Angora, Cinder and Flamingo, just to name a few with Baja being my favorite.”

Spring Colors Palette

“some of the colors for spring are luscious Tan-gerine Tango, Margarita, Cockatoo, Starfish,sodalite Blue and driftwood,” says Meredith. of course, everybody, whether you are a western fashonista or not, needs a great pair of boots, belt or bag.

A sodalite blue colored ring with sterling silver is a great fashion accessory. dress it up, or wear it with yourfavoritedenimoutfit.


Meredith’s wedding dress color forecast for spring is to get away from the traditional white or off white. Break out of the mold and go bolder with colors like Pistachio, Rose Hips, Flamingo or innocence(a pale pinkish color). View her pink and white wedding dress in our weddings feature section.

use accent colors of Tangerine Tango, sodalite Blue, Cockatoo or Cabaret(hot pink) with a dress of cham-pagne or natural white(slightly off white) silk.These beautiful, bright spring colors are accentuated in a spring bridal bouquet.

if you would like to go another direction than pastel, the bright yellows, tangerine tango and the light blue/green cockatoo color are set to make your wedding an updated, beautiful spring wedding. in our spring Fashion Forecast column, we include the spring color palette of fashionable colors which are bright and cheery. These colors can add to your decorations, cakes, bouquets, tablecloths and much more. A deep fuscia will add a little pop to the bright spring colors of any bouquetorflowerarrangement.

High noon wedding… what is more American than country-salt of the earth couples preparing for this day? so it goes that when the western com-munity wants to show off their fashion state-

ments, they want it to express who they are.

Traditional lace dresses have been the main staple for western weddings, and there is no doubt that they are a part of Americana and going nowhere. The Tucson and The Cheyenne shown above, offer the elegance traditional lace dresses have. The sante Fe (shown in the middle of the photo above), shows a different style of dress that can be used for attendants, or for the bride at her bridal shower.

Maybe kick off your trusted blue jeans and slip into one ofourdenimbridaldresses.Sat’nSpurscreatedthefirstdenim wedding dress in 2001, and they have expanded the line to 26 choices. sat’n spurs has since expanded their denim line into garters, accessories and elegant laced jeans.

Not only is Angie an accomplished barrel racer, she is also a sought-after model who is now the model and spokes-woman for the Cowgirl Tuff Company. Here are a list of some of the magazines Angie has been featured in...

* seventeen * Western Horseman * America’s Horse * Women’s Pro Rodeo * Vogue * Country Weekly * Barrel Horse News * Ropers and Riders Calendar Cover girl (1995 through 1998) * Horse and Rider * Featured on High gear Rodeo Trading Cards

Q’s & A’s Cowgirls In Style: Tell about yourself?Angie: i have a great family that i’m very close to. i was born in Fairbanks, Alaska. My grandpa and dad worked on the Alaskan pipeline. My family is from oklahoma. We have always had horses and cattle. My grandpa roped and my dad team roped for fun. My mom always loved horses, but was never a barrel racer. i have one younger brother that i am very close to. i’m so very proud of him and look up to him in so many ways. He has a few horses, a cattle ranch and a construction business.

CIS: Tell about your animals?A.M. My animals..... i love them all. i have a shih tzu named Rascal that travels everywhere with me. i think more people know Rascal than me. He loves going to the rodeos with me. He is a little “social Bug.” He has all his rodeo dog friends and people that he visits every time we go somewhere. i also have a Mini sicilian donkey named Coolwhip. My boy-friend Kollin VonAhn bought him for me at the Kansas City petting zoo while we were there for the rodeo. He is the funniest thing ever! He makes me laugh everyday.



CIS: Where are you from?A.M.: i grew up in a small country town in oklahoma. Wetumka, ok. i now live in Blanchard, ok.

CIS: did you grow up in the country? A.M.: yes. i grew up in a small oklahoma town. Pop-ulation 1500. Maybe. There is a four way stop in Wetumka and that’s about all. if you blink you will miss the town. The grocery store is on one corner of the four way, the bank on another, gas station on the other and a dairy Queen on the other. Not much was ever going on. We were a good 45 minutes from the closest Wal-mart or any other decent sized town. growing up, i remember doing a lot of riding horses, four wheelers, dragging main street and sitting on the tail gates of pickup trucks with friends at the dairy Queenwatchingthetrafficpassby.Weneverlockedthe doors, everyone knew everyone and everyone’s business. i was your typical small town girl, i guess you could say, but had big dreams for me and my horses. i was known in my small town as ‘Angie the horse girl.’i now live in the country but it’s really close to the city. i still have the country feel, but, can be at the airport or restau-rant in 10 minutes. so that makes it nice.

CIS: When did you start riding horses? A.M.: i started riding horses before i could walk. My par-ents had a palomino pony that i went everywhere on. i rode her in parades, play days and pretty much spent all day just riding and playing on my pony. i had neighbor kids that had ponies and we played ‘cowboys and indians’, had races, and went on trail rides. i can remember in the sum-mer we would ride our ponies, then when we would get hot we would tie them up to a tree and go swimming for a bit, then get right back on and do it again. i was always a kid that when it came dinner time and time for a bath, my mom always had to come outside and make me come in. i was a tom boy and loved to be outside with my animals. i now own one horse, which seems really weird, but for several years now i have trained futurity horses and rode horses at the rodeos for other people. i bought a two year old last June that i own myself. i’m training him and plan-ning on taking him to the futurities. i’m planning on getting a few more of my own horses started in the next few years.

CIS: When did you start barrel racing and what got you started? A.M.: i was probably 4 or 5 when i started barrel racing at the play days and local

junior rodeos. i attended a Martha Josey barrel racing school and had a few friends that barrel raced that i would practice with. i joined the MRCA association, the oklahoma Barrel racing, and a few more local associations. i set goals for myself at those and when i accomplished those i would move up to tougher competition. i then joined the CRRA and iPRA rodeo associations and started going to rodeos. i remember my mom had a suburban and we had a 4 horse stock trailer that rattled so bad when we pulled in that i was embarrassed to pull in because it was so loud. i made the yearendfinalsatthoseassociationsandwonRookieoftheyear in the CRRA association. From then on, barrel racing was what i loved and i knew that i was going to do it. i wasn’t sure how, but i was going to be at the National Finals Rodeo as one of the best in the world someday. some people encouraged me and some discouraged me. i didn’t care, i was so driven that i bought my WPRA card in 1989 and my mom, dad and i hit the road. looking back now, i think we were just too stupid to know any better. (laugh) it wasdefinitelyalearningexperiencethefirstyear. Iendedthe year just out of the top 15 but after that in 1990, i quali-fiedformyfirstNFRat14yrsold.ItwasabsolutelyaDREAMCoMe TRue! i was there. With Charmayne James, Marlene eddleman, Martha Josey and many other great barrel racers that i idolized. i was fearless back then and so excited to be attheSuperBowlofRodeo.Ihadfinallymadeit!Ihadverysupportive parents along with very supportive grandpar-ents that raised me to believe that if i wanted something, to go for it. They were always there telling me i could do it even though it wasn’t always perfect. They always expected me to treat it very serious if i was going to do it at a profes-sionallevel.Ihadtoputmyhorsesfirstandforemostaboveany high school or teenage thing that might come along. like going to do teenager things before taking care of my horses was a No No. i had to make good grades in school and take care of my business. if i didn’t want to do that, i could always go home and be a normal kid, but that was never in my vocabulary.

CIS: Why do you barrel race? A.M.: i think my love for horses and the bond between a barrel racer and her horse. i love the competition and that it’s a speed event. CIS: When did you qualify for the NFR and your history? Itwas1990,Iwas14yrsold.Ihavequalified7times,aboard5 different horses. CIS: When did you start modeling? i would have to say my modeling career started because ofhorsesandbarrelracing.ThefirstyearIqualifiedfortheNFR, Wrangler called me and asked if i would be interested in modeling for them on a photo shoot they had coming up. of course i knew Wrangler was a big sponsor of the rodeos and endorsed many of the cowboys and cowgirls, but i wasn’t really sure why they wanted to use me for a model. i had absolutely zero experience, but i thought it would be fun, so off we went... me and my mom. From then on, i started doing more and more for Wrangler. i ended

up having a 20 year relationship with Wrangler as a model and spokesperson. That’s something i’m proud of. The more i modeled, the more i got calls from other things outside the western industry. doors opened that i would have never believed. i was featured in seventeen Magazine for model-ing and barrel racing. i was also featured in Norwegian elle Magazine. After about two years of doing it on my own, i got an agent. i’ve now worked for many different clients and companies, worked on movie sets... it’s really fun be-cause its such a different lifestyle for me. To get to go to so many beautiful locations and meet so many interesting people is really fun and eye opening for a small town coun-try girl. it’s a lot like acting. sometimes you have to become someone you’re not or play the role, which can be fun. it’s really cool when you get to meet people like Collin Farrell and scott Cann. That’s probably my highlight. i’m just glad when i met them that i could remember to speak. (laugh) CIS: Who are you currently modeling for? A.M.: Cowgirl Tuff Company. in April of 2011, Cowgirl Tuff Company and i teamed up. it has been an incredible jour-ney so far. They are a great group of people to work with. i truly believe in what they stand for. Not to mention, i love their clothes! CIS: What else do you do work wise? A.M.: Besides training horses and rodeoing, i am also a hair stylist. i worked in a salon for almost 6 years before going back to rodeoing. i’m not working in a salon right now be-cause the horses have most of my time. i loved it though, it was fun and got me out of the barn for the day (laugh). Right now, i’m working on getting some barrel racing clin-ics going for 2012. That will be another exciting adventure. CIS: What are your hobbies? i absolutely love to be at the beach or the lake. i love to water ski, snow ski and just be around the water in the sunshine. if i’m home during the summer and have a day or two off, i love to be at the lake with my family and friends. There is nothing better. CIS: Favorite style of clothes? A.M.: i like the Funky Cowgirl style. i like to dress up, but I’mdefinitelyajeansandt-shirtkindofgirl.Ilovecustomcowboy boots, cool belts and western jewelry. i think if you have those things you can dress up anything.

i b e l i e v e that we h a v e all felt

the chal-lenge, “How can i keep my cool on this horse?” We all have the poten-tial to lose our temper. The prob-lem with losing your temper is it m a g n i f i e s the problem, making the horse even more resis-tant to the task. Horses respond best to clear mes-

sages. When they are wrong, show them clearly and cor-rectly. When they are right, clearly reward. i like to spend a lot of time showing my horse a maneuver and working onhisacceptancetothatspecificmaneuver.Therecomesa time when i have to demand it. Maintaining acceptance is crucial. if i feel that he has honestly learned and knows what is expected, then he needs to be willing. i should not have to beg for obedience.everyone’s personality is different so is their patience level. Thegoal is to staywithin that levelwhile riding. Be firm(without anger) when appropriate and soft when needed. i will give tips and strategies to enhance your understanding ofyourhorseandhowtoworkthroughdifficulttimes.

Tip #1 – Consider all factors that may affect your horse’s attitude.let’s start by considering factors that make it hard for your horse to focus on you while training or riding. it may be he has to just deal with it, but these factors still play a part. it is good to be mindful and know what can affect your horse. • Factor #1 – Your horse’s energy levelThis is so important! A fresh horse reminds me of a kid that

ate a bunch of candy. They are uptight, ready to go and have trouble focusing. if your horse is too fresh to focus, consider lounging or turning him out to expel unwanted energy. Then start your workout. if your horse has a lot of energy and you cannot wear him down, consider what you are feeding him. High carbohydrate, high sugar feed may providemoreenergythanheneeds.Adjusthisfeedtofithis work level and event you show him in. Too much high energy feed can make it hard for the horse to focus.• Factor #2 – Hormones or heat cyclesif you are riding a mare, be observant of her behavior when she is in heat. Almost all mares change when they are cy-cling. some get excessive energy, others become dull and sticky or mad at your legs. Certain mares get angry at other horses.Ifyouareridingamarethatbecomesverydifficultyou may try putting them on Regumate. some of our show mares are on Regumate to keep their attitude consistent duringshowseason.ThemostcommonsituationIfindisthat my mares have a lot more energy when they are in heat. stallions are also greatly affected by hormones.• Factor #3 – Young or green horseAnother factor to consider is the age of your horse. young horses have a shorter attention span than older horses. They also don’t have the self discipline and patience that older horses acquire. young horses require repetition. They learn by consistency. it takes hundreds of times to perform a maneuver before it is ingrained in their mind for them to become broke. i teach my young horses self discipline by leaving them tied for periods of time. i might also ride them at different times of the day and constantly change their routine. i may ride them at a meal time or in the evening. i try not to get them dependant on a routine. shows are un-predictable and i may have to compete during a meal time. A horse can become very upset by this. They must realize that they still have to behave no matter what the time of day or what the circumstance is.• Factor #4 – Poor Attention Span or a spooky horsesome horses have a poor attention span. often they are horses that spook or ones that want to look at things. This personality type may be genetic; some of it could also be a learned behavior. you can teach your horse to be spooky. This happens through body language and subtle signals through your body that there is something to worry about as you approach a scary or challenging object. if your horse feels your fear, this tells him that it is a big deal and he may react or spook, which causes you to react even more.you may be unconsciously causing a pattern of learned be-havior. Become aware of your signals. Breathe and relax

Horse Training 101By dANA HoKANA

Tips for Keeping Your Cool While Riding theResistant Horse



while approaching intimidating obstacles. When he reacts, act as if it is no big deal. Keep going back and forth by the object until he can relax. stop your horse by the scary spot, stand there until you hear him breathe and relax. do not overreact! if you are able, tie them out in different places and leave them there until they can relax can stand quietly.• Factor #5 – Negative past experiencesThis is a really important factor, because if you have a horse that you did not own during all of his training he may have some negative reactions to your cues or pressure, it might be because of his past training. As an example, if he overreacts when you pick him up in the face and he becomes unrea-sonable, it may be that someone who rode him jerked him or scared him. you can undo negative past experiences with timeandpatience,butthefirststepisdiagnosingtheprob-lem. To repair damage you must turn the bad experience in to a good one or in the least an okay experience.• Factor #6 – Sorenessif your horse is sore somewhere he will have trouble focus-ing. if something just doesn’t feel right, seek the help of a professional. An uncomfortable horse can not be expected to give you his best.

Tip #2 – do not get emotionali have a saying, “stay out emotionally.” This can be very dif-ficultandIknowthatalltoowell.Mostpeopleshoworridebecause they enjoy their horses and it means a great deal to them.Whenyouareridingahorseandyoucannotfigureoutwhatisgoingwrongorheisfightingyou,it iseasytoget upset. This can turn into anger, which your horse can feel. your emotions truly come out in your cues in how you communicate with your horse. if your horses is unwilling or refusing you, try to approach it like it is his problem, not yours. separate yourself emotionally. your horse is making his choices and he can have the consequences. if you feel that your horse has bad past experiences, does not under-stand, or is confused, then take your time. isolate the prob-lem or refusal and deal with that one thing until you break through. i have been on horses for long periods of time until i had a break through and started to get to the other side of my problem. sometimes breaking through in a small area paves the way and builds the relationship (or respect), until hegoesaheadandgivesupthefight.

Tip #3 – isolate and work on the body part that is refus-ing youThis goes back to understanding and diagnosing the prob-lem. i often see people label a horse as ‘bad’ or being a ‘jerk’. That tends to promote you to a state of anger leading to jerking or spurring the horse to solve the problem. i want to isolate what part of their body said “no” and then correct that body part rather than the whole horse. Ride intelligently and be mindful. Be smarter than the horse! For example, if he is refusing to give his face, then work on getting his face and focusonthatuntilyouconquerit.Often,Ifindhorsesthatare angry at or resisting my leg or spur. i will put my leg on them and perform exercises or maneuvers to get them to say “yes” to me until i get on the winning side of the argument. Attackingandfightingthewholehorseoftensnowballsinto

a bigger problem. Many horses are angry because someone mistakenly diagnosed the problem and then attacked the whole horse instead the body part that refused.your horse can not control his circumstance but you can. Create an environment where he can learn. Where he can receive what you’re giving him. evaluate yourself and how you are asking and teaching, “your delivery” so to speak. As you work as a team you slowly build a relationship and you will create enough authority in the relationship that you can takehim intodifficultplaces.Hewill still listentoyouandobey your cues. Keep your emotions in check and you will go farther with your horse.

We are excited to introduce our new Rodeo Queen’s Column logo, featuring Miss Rodeo il-linois 2011, Brooke owen. Not only is Brooke Miss Rodeo illinois, but she was chosen Most

Photogenic at the Miss Rodeo America Pageant in las Vegas, NV. We are very proud to include Brooke in our new logo.

A little information about Brooke...

i am originally from Mapleton, illinois but i now live in Hanna City, illinois.

i started in pageants in Junior Rodeo. i wasfirstrunneruptwotimesgoingintomy 7th and 8th grade years. The second time i lost by 1 point. i never ran for High school Rodeo Queen because i was too involved in my high school and activities. i knew that if i wasn’t able to put 100% of myself into it, it wouldn’t be right.

i won my first pageant October 2010,Miss Rodeo illinois 2011. To say the least, i was elated. it was my dream come true. Right away i started fundraising, plan-ning my year that was ahead of me and arranged to take a semester off of col-lege to travel and concentrate on being the best queen i could be. i wouldn’t have had it any other way. Finding out later that i was the youngest state title holder of my year just made me challenge myself even more to proudly represent illinois in the professional rodeo world.

My favorite part of the MRA Pageant would have to be the

Fashion show. i love to perform, i’ve been a tap and jazz dancer since i was 4. i still tap and teach dance as well. started tumblingaroundthesametimeuntilIfinallyaccomplisheda full-twisting layout at 18. i was also a cheerleader in grade school, high school and now college. i also enjoyed the Pho-togenics portion of the pageant as well. i worked with my lo-cal photographer who designed my autograph sheets sever-al times, to get the best poses for me exactly right. i believe

that you only get out of it what you put into it. Well, my planned worked, i was awarded “Most Photogenic” at the MRA Pageant, and was thrilled.

My hobbies are working out, listen-ing to music, going to the movies, riding my horses and hanging out with my family, they’re awesome.

i have 3 horses, a paint pony that i trained in barrels and poles for Ju-nior Rodeo. A light colored straw-berry roan who is just 6 years old and is a constant project. He is very fast and i hope that he turns out to be the horse that gets me to the WNFR in las Vegas in about 6 years, god willing. My current horse i ride in PRCA events is a 20 year old sor-rel mare. she has the right mind and attitude that everyone dreams their

horse would have. she just loves run-ning barrels and wants to win. i got her

whenshewas17andittookayearandahalftofigureherout. Now we’re a team and we understand each other. she always seems to get me to the pay window. i love her.

As Miss Rodeo illinois 2011 i learned so much about myself and met so many amazing peo-ple. My advice to rodeo queens all over the

country would be to never stop smiling because you never know who is watching. Always respect others, especially the other rodeo queens. Trust me, by the end of your reign, they will truly be your best friends. Never forget to thank the people that gave you this once in a lifetime honor and to take advantage of eVeRy opportunity thrown your way. And most of all, live every moment like it’s your last because the time goes by so fast.god Bless

A s far as rodeo queen tips – i have learned that there are so many people who want to be negative and bring you down. That might come in the form

of trainers, a seamstress, the other girls or maybe even their mothers, and sadly sometimes even the cowboys or contract personnel who are stressed themselves during a rodeo. Hearing negative things, about myself or about others, brings me down – that is the nature of “negative”. i do not think i can be af-fective – certainly not in a competition, but also not afterwards as the reigning queen either, if people have been saying negative things around me. i have to just smile my brightest smile and move away from them. Try to surround yourself with positive people who believe in you and what you are trying to ac-complish. sometimes this takes effort and work to findthesepeoplebecauseifoftenseemslikethereare so many negative people – but the positive ones are out there, often in the least likely places. i have been so extremely blessed to have some of the most amazing, gifted and talented people in my life. People who are willing to give of themselves, whether that be in time, resources, or maybe by just allowing me to call them to hear something funny or a word of encouragement. Being around positive people then allows me to also go out and strive to be a positive person myself.

To me, being a rodeo queen is being able to be of service. This is not all about me, but it is instead about what i can do for others. This of

course includes anyone having anything to do with rodeo, but it also goes far beyond that. My crown gains me access to be able to visit schools, nurs-ing homes and hospitals. Just this last Christmas, i helped with “Angel Tree” and “shop with a Cop” programs. i have raised money for the pediatric unit at our local hospital, and held a sock which brought in hundreds of pairs of socks for the local “Care and share”. All it takes is picking up the phone and say-ing “i am available. is there anything i can i do for you?”

Meet Miss Rodeo America 2012

MacKenzie CarrMackenzie Carr of Vernonia, Oregon reigns

as Miss Rodeo America 2012. She received the crown on December 10, 2011 at the

conclusion of the week-long pageant held in Las Ve-gas, Nevada in conjunction with the Wrangler Na-tional Finals Rodeo. Mackenzie will travel more than 100,000 miles during her reign representing Miss Rodeo America, Inc. and the Professional Rodeo Cow-boy’s Association.

“I am so blessed to be the first Oregonian to have the prestigious honor and privilege of serving as Miss Rodeo America.” Carr said.

Mackenzie graduated from Lower Columbia College with an Associate of Arts degree in Speech Commu-nications and will later transfer back to Oregon State University pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Construc-tion Management Engineering with a minor in Speech Communications. She will be taking time out from her studies at Oregon State University to reign as the “First Lady of Professional Rodeo.” She will be able to use the $26,000 in scholarships she was awarded as Miss Rodeo America from the Miss Rodeo America Scholarship Foundation to help further her education-al goals.

When Mackenzie isn’t promoting the sport of rodeo either in or out of the arena, she enjoys cooking, sing-ing and playing the piano. She also loves to dig it up and slam it down on the volleyball court, riding, train-ing horses and giving riding lessons to young chil-dren. She is excited about the prospect of spending 2012 traveling across the country being a role model for people of all ages, remaining a cowgirl to the core and promoting the Miss Rodeo America organization as well as our great sponsors!

Making a Difference

sherry sykes and her daughter, Nakiya sykes share the love for the sport of barrel racing! i am a full time mother to 3, work a full time job on post serving the children of Fort Campbell, Ky, and a full time horse owner and trainer for my daughter.

We are not your average barrel racers....we maybe your weekender barrel racers so to speak, but we are also full time Military support-ers! The war in Afghanistan is part of our daily lives on top of the other 20-30 things normal families do on a daily basis. our sched-ule gets those odd things that most families don’t have to do regu-larly like send “CARe” packages a few times a month, sleep with your telephone, and hope and pray your computer doesn’t go in to sleep mode and miss an alert from your loved one in Afghanistan.

sherry’s daughter is 10 year old Nakiya sykes...she is a barrel racer! This is her sport of choice! she is not part of the majority here at Fort Campbell, Ky when it comes to children and their extra cur-ricular activities. she has been riding horses for about 3 years. Na-kiya started barrel racing 2 years ago. in her short 2 years working on learning the do’s and don’t’s of the sport she has won countless ribbons, trophies,andherfirstbuckle thisyear!Nakiyahasbeenthe 2 year running high point champion in her age and speed class at our local saddle club. A lot of this accomplishment we owe to her best friend and partner in crime Fancy. Fancy is a little black quar-ter pony mare that has taught Nakiya more than any human ever could, and not just about barrel racing! even though my daughter has accomplished a lot in her short 2 year run at her sport she has endured half of that with a deployment! yes, her dad is sgT steven R sykes currently serving in Kandahar Afghanistan! daily life is dif-ficultenoughforchildrenthenaddinthefactthatyourfather isdown range in a WAR! school work, horse work or any kind of work for that matter, he has had to miss so much of her life in the last year. Nakiya has many times stepped on to her little horse to hit the alley way and the last thing she would say to me is,” Mom i wish dad was here!” Many tears have been shed after a run, but never for a loss or a win always for the empty seat of her biggest supporter! Nakiya misses her father every time she sets her self up to make a run, but if she didn’t have her sport, this sport, and her best friend i am not sure what kind of a toll this War would take on our child. For that we are blessed. My little cowgirl at 10 has very different struggles with things in the world than most chil-dren as most children her age have no idea what Afghanistan even is. i am very proud of my husband and the job he does for our family as well as his country. i would never want to discred-it what any soldier does for this nation, but sometimes you just want what we live on a daily basis to just go away, and for me every time i watch her smooch to her horse, hit that ally and get a clean fast run, it all disappears for those few short seconds!

start off by putting the horse out to pasture. He can have a goodgalloparoundthefieldleavingyoufreetoworkundis-turbed. you will need a wheelbarrow to transport the dirty bedding, a shovel and your brush which should only be used in and around the stable.

First off, give the floor a really goodsweep out. Make sure to get into all the corners and get rid of every last bit of bedding. Next, look up. Chances are there are huge black cobwebs hang-ing off the roof that you haven’t even noticed. get them all down with your brush but try not to hurt the spiders!

it is a good idea to wash and disinfect thefloornowtoremoveanyurineandmanure that’s soaked through. After this your stable should be smelling and looking lovely.

if you haven’t already, consider getting wall mounted tool holders to keep all your tools on. The stable will look much tidier for it and you won’t be able to trip over your shovel.

Whenyou’resatisfiedyou’vedoneagreatjob,youcanputthe new bedding down, bring your horses feeder, any buck-ets and toys back in and of course the horse itself. if your horse gives you the nod of approval, you’re then free to go about other business, have a cup of hot chocolate, or pour yourself a much deserved, favorite beverage.

don’t forget your tack room! Keep tack clean, don’t just clean it once in a while. even tack that isn’t regularly used, clean at least once a month to keep moist. Cover clean tack in a sheet to prevent mold spores from landing on it. Also

keep the air moving in your tack room in the warmer season, or with weather changes to dissuade quick mold growth.

Whether you are reorganizing a messy tack room or creating a new one, a well-designed tack room can save you a lot of time and frustration in the long run. An organized tack room saves you time getting ready each day, and having items like medical supplies in easy reach can be important in an emergen-cy. A well-thought-out design will also pro-tect your expensive tack and blankets from rodents and mildew.

shared tack rooms are often a place to hang out and gossip and even eat meals, so don’t be afraid to add personal touches like photographs, a couch or a small table and chairs. Make it personal, you may even want to make it a brag room where you can showcase your trophies, ribbons and other memorabilia.

some of the must-have’s for an organized tack room are...

• saddle Racks• shelving• drawers• Wall Hooks• labels

Placing your brushes, hoof tools, and other varioius grooming supplies in inexpensive, plastic drawers or wall shelves and then labeling each drawer or shelf will help youstayorganizedandfindthoseitemsyouarelookingfor. Wall hooks for bridles, halters and ropes will keep themoffthegroundandeasytofind.Ifyouhavemultiplebridles, halters and ropes, place the bridle and halter for each horse on a different hook.

if you frequently mix grain with supplements, for exam-ple, you might put a medicine cabinet in the feed room. This way, when you’re mixing grain, you can just reach in the cabinet for supplements and additives you need.

if you have extra money and would like to go out and buy some organizational products, that would be great, but you can also create an organized tack room by using items you have around your house and garage. For ex-ample, buckets, boxes and old boards for shelving make excellent organizing helps.

once you get your barn and/or tack room clean and or-ganized, you are going to need to do a regular upkeep and cleaning of it. Pick one day a week, example, Friday and have that be your cleanup day for the week. This way you will keep up on the cleaning and orgainizing so that it’s not a major job each spring.

A great website that will help you organize your tack room is, The organized Barn at www.organizedbarn.com. it gives great helps in setting up organized shelving, kits, organizing your trailer and more. We have included some of their photos on the following page to show how easy it can be to organize your barn and tack room. if you go to their site, they also show photos and ideas from cus-tomers who have used their products to organize their tack rooms and trailers.

Cowgirl swank is a one of a kind, cowgirl fashion company that focuses on handmade, custom hair-on-hide and swarovski crystal caps, visors and apparel. started in 2007 by Cheyenne Wil-

son, her creations have become a must have fashion statement for many cow-girls across the country.

Cheyenne was born and raised in southeastern Montana on a working cat-tle ranch. Her family also raised quarter horses. They trained them and used them to compete in rodeos. Her mom competed in the 1976 NFR in oklahoma City so Cheyenne was fortunate to have a horse trainer for a mother. she started rodeo-ing when she was 3 at local play days. she continued to compete into high school where she won 3 state championships in break-away roping, pole bending, and goat tying. Rodeoing helped her earn a full-ride scholarship to dawson Community College in glendive, MT. she went on from college to become in-volved in makeup artistry and retail management. To-day, Cheyenne and her husband and three-year-old son own and operate a cow/calf operation on the Pine Ridge Reservation in southwestern south dakota.

A love of western style and retail is something that Chey-enne has always cherished. she loves classy bling styles and decided to take it upon herself to design and create

custom caps and visors using steer hide and swarovski crystals. “i originally started the company as a retail ven-ue thinking i would go to tradeshows as a vendor,” says Cheyenne. Her plan was to create her own caps and visors to sell as well as selling a few other items such

as belts, handbags, and jewelry. This was short-lived when she found out she was expecting her son. She soon became a first-time mother and her business took a back seat for a couple of years. once she had a chance to reassess her goals and what she wanted for Cowgirl swank, she totally changed directions.

Cheyenne determined that planting herself in one location was a better move for her, so she set up shop in oelrichs, sd (a small town 20 miles from their ranch) and began offering cus-tom wholesale items along with custom retail sales as she had done in the past.

All of Cowgirl swank’s items are handcrafted in the usA. “i think that is what makes my creations special.....the fact that they are

custom,” says Cheyenne. some well known western wear stores

now carry her designs including, - NRs - david’s West-ern stores - Murdoch’s, etc...

Cheyenne put all of her time and efforts into developing a new website at www.Cowgirlswank.com, and incorpo-rating Facebook into her business. Facebook proved to be another positive aspect and a very important vessel of growth for her business.

Cheyenne was also fortunate to be involved in the Miss Rodeo America pageant/fashion show this year in las Vegas. All of the contestants wore Cowgirl swank mili-tary cap creations in the opening segment of the fashion show. she was fortunate to be there to see all of them un-der the spotlights. Wow, what a sight!! gAC and suzanne Alexander covered the fashion show and Cheyenne was so surprised to see Cowgirl swank caps on TV before the NFR!! “What an incredible surprise!” says Cheyenne.

Cheyenne has also made various donations to the JustinCowboyCrisisFundaswellasothersmallerbenefitsandfunds. she truly believes in paying it forward and giving back. “i plan to participate in the JCCF Celebrity Bowl-ing Tournament next year in las Vegas with Team Cowgirl swank. i believe that helping others is an essential part and duty of every business. Where would i be without my customers? i treasure each of them and affectionately call them “swank Fans” on my Facebook page. i prefer to refer to them as something more than customers - friends, if you will,” says Cheyenne. “When i create something with my hands for someone it involves an innate artistic quality that includes getting to know what each person wants based on their personality and preference. That’s why i say, “friends” because by the time they receive their custom item from me.....they are no longer just a customer....they are a friend.”

Those of you wandering the West looking for exciting, and sometimes out-of-the-way western ad-ventureswillbesuretolovethisdiscovery.WhenyoufindyourselfupMontanawaytravelingI-90,you will want to make a side trip to the old gold ghost town of garnet, named after the semi-pre-

cious stones found in the area. set high in beautiful pine forests near the top of the garnet Mountain Range, this well preserved ghost town that produced over 60,000 ounces of gold and 50,000 ounces of silver around the turn of the century, is waiting for you to wander.

garnet is now recognized as one of Montana’s most intact ghost towns and thousands of visitors trek their way up the mountainroadstoexperiencehistoryfirsthandastheywalkthroughitsmanyoldcabins,saloons,andhotel.Singlemenwere usually the only residents of earlier mining camps but society differed in garnet as it held a large number of families.

Wandering into garnet, montana



With families and children, a school house was established soon after its founding with 41 students. in 1898 the town boasted about 1000 miners , wives, and children but by 1905 the ore had played out and the town had shrunk to about 150. When WW1 started, the last of the hold-outs headed down the mountain but many of the buildings, ghosts and history wait for you to walk its dusty streets once more. A side trip in the area is the old Cataldo Mission. This is a beautiful structure and well maintained. A new visitors cen-terisjustaboutfinished.Thiswasthefirstbuildingerectedin idaho, just off i-90 in idaho’s panhandle. To get to garnet if you are traveling on i-90 west, exit at drummond, follow the frontage road west about 10 miles, then drive up the mountain on Bear gulch Road about 7.5 miles. if going east, exit at Bearmouth, then follow the frontage road east about 5 miles then up Bear gulch. A better road to the site is from Montana Route 200, then south on garnet Range Road which turns off about 30 miles east of Missoula. Follow Range Road about 12 miles and you will see the signs for parking.

good luck pardners, happy western hunting and remember to keep your nose to the wind! --The Western Wanderer
