Parelli Games
The goal of the Games is to have success and learn. It's a non-competitive tournament you can join-in or just watch and enjoy! You do not have to be doing the Parelli program. Participate for yourself or put together a team of four. We bend the rules to make sure everyone has enough time to try new things and test themselves in a supportive environment. Winning is not the objective--but it's sure nice to be recognized for all your and your horse's hard work.

Trailerpalooza
Try putting your horse in a trailer from 100 ft. away and WIN CASH! Two dollars from every Parelli Games entry goes into the pot. The person who can get their horse in the trailer fastest, from the furthest distance and with the most flair (as determined by the judges) wins! It all starts with practice time at Liberty and then the money round. You'll start at 100 feet away and move forward 20 feet with each attempt.
FREE with Games entry
BBQ and Barn Dance
On Saturday night, share finger lickin' Armadillo Barbeque with friends and whoop it up with music from the Lost River String Band at the barn dance. It'll be a great time to share stories and meet other natural horsemanship students.
$20 per person
