A year ago barrel racer Hayle Gibson Stillwell used this event to qualify for the Calgary Stampede where she won good money to help her punch her first ticket to the Wrangler NFR.
The event will include a WPRA card race (barrels), WPRA breakaway, WPRA permit only sidepot, Calgary Qualifier, and Open 4D.
The WPRA Card Race, for card holders only, will have $12,500 in added money with entry fees being $210. There will be two rounds of competition. The top four in the average will qualify for the Utah Days of ’47 Rodeo (July 21-25) in Salt Lake City. For those looking to qualify for the Calgary Stampede they will need to enter the qualifier race with entry fee of $425 but can have their times rolled over into the WPRA Card Race for a shot at the Utah Days of ’47 Rodeo as well. *Please note you must enter the card race and pay that entry fee plus the Calgary Qualifier entry fee to compete in the Calgary Qualifier.
In the breakaway roping, which is open to card and permit members, there is $10,000 added with an entry fee of $330. There will be two back-to-back rounds of competition. The top four in the average will qualify for the Utah Days of ’47 Rodeo (July 21-25) in Salt Lake City. For those looking to qualify for the Calgary Stampede they will need to enter the qualifier race with entry fee of $425 but can have their times rolled over into the WPRA breakaway roping for a shot at the Utah Days of ’47 Rodeo as well. Should a permit member qualify for the Calgary Stampede or the Utah Days of ’47 Rodeo, that member will need to buy their card prior to entering either one. *Please note you must enter the WPRA breakaway and pay that entry fee plus the Calgary Qualifier entry fee to compete in the Calgary Qualifier.
In addition there will be a WPRA Permit Only Sidepot with $250 added for those interested.
Entries are now open and will close on March 27 at 11 p.m. MT.
