MAY 7

VC Vaqueros set to hold Mother’s Day show

By DEl SMITh

If you are looking for a fun time and place to take your mother on May 11, you are invited to Aerie Park to the VC Vaqueros Old Timer’s Show.
Mothers will be most welcome, and if not riding, they can enter the Telephone Book Race. Starting time is 9 a.m.
This is the 44th year the Vaqueros have held a fun show for the “Old Timers” which in this event is 29 & over.
Classes will be Sit-A-Buck, Pole Bending, Trotting Race, Telephone Book Race (partners–1 rider, & 1 other), and Champagne Race in the morning. Start time is 9 a.m.
The Cook shack will be open, and Chef Todd is ready to cook with a special for all the mothers.
Afternoon classes will be Single Pole, Jack Benny Pleasure (39 & over), Figure Eight Stakes, Texas Barrels and Fox & Hounds (Partners). The traditional cowboy trophies will be awarded to winners in these classes except Fox & Hounds which will be gift certificates.
A special trophy will go to the oldest cowboy riding and the oldest cowgirl riding. To qualify you must be entered in the Jack Benny class and one other class. Also an award will go to the Oldest Horse who must be entered in at least one class.
This is the one show of the year where all the “work” is done by the Young Riders Group and the “old ones” get to play.
