Northern Nevada Barrel Racers!! You all asked, so I think you might like this one!
Probably going to add more dates along the way, because why not we need more races!

I am going to try out a weekday with Wednesday next week and depending on how it goes might switch and do some Thursday nights instead, or scrap the weeknights altogether. If we get enough entries, I might just do one every week. Some of these weekend dates might become two day races or have to flip flop saturday for sunday, etc, so be sure you are following Corley Ranch to stay updated on the latest!

I searched all over Facebook and didn't find any dates that overlapped any of these in this area, but I am only human, so please if I made a mistake on any of these and there is already a posted barrel race in Northern Nevada within 2 hours of our arena on any of these dates, please let me know so I can reschedule, etc.

With this said, we will be looking for added money and sponsors for these upcoming races! Looking to add some money to the Weekend ones especially!

Also, we are always looking for barrel setters and gate help, so if you or anybody you know is interested, please let me know!

Thank you to everyone who came out this weekend! This race is amazing and means so much to my sister, mom and I! We hope to keep it going for years to come! So much fun to have the barrel racing community come together for such a fun weekend! Love seeing our sport and lifestyle and the ranch getting the recognition! Happy Mother’s Day everyone!

Sorry for all the spam posts on the Barrel Race! But we had the pleasure of News 4, Channel 4 News out here covering the race today and Mother’s Day!
So if anyone wants to tune in at 5 pm on channel 4 Reno they are doing a Mother’s Day story on the race, ranch and some participants!

Such a fun race! We had an amazing moment today during the Grand Entry, we did a mothers’s day dedication and national anthem. I will post the speech I gave as the dedication below. If anyone has any pictures from I would love to see them!

Mother’s Day Barrel Race Speech
“Good morning everyone!
Before we kick off today’s barrel race, I want to take a moment to recognize some of the hardest-working, most dedicated, and toughest people we know—our moms.
Whether they're hauling horses, packing lunches, calming nerves, or cheering from the fence line, mothers are the quiet strength behind every ride. Some are in the arena racing today, some are helping from the sidelines, and some are cheering us on in spirit.
So today, as we race for the clock, let’s also race in celebration of every mother who’s helped us get here—with love, grit, and a whole lot of heart.
To all the moms out there: thank you, we love you, and this one’s for you.
Happy Mother’s Day!
