May 26, 2024 - RESULTS
What a fun and blessed day yesterday! God does answer prayers. I asked for a smooth flowing safe Day, and more, and he blessed us with that. I can't thank everyone enough for all the help yesterday. Lise Blanton (working the sound) and Lisa Thomas for the help in the office. James Dickson and Kathy Dickason for help with dragging and setting up. A HUGE thank you to Heather Blanford for coming out at 9 am to start prepping the arena and dragging for us. Thank you to these 3 as we had some tractor problems with the rotor on the drag and were able to fix enough to be able to still have the finals and barrel race. Its about a 1,000 pounds. I don't know how they did it but by the grace of God, he gave them the strength to get it done.
Thank you Brooklyn Barker, her husband, Ada, and all who helped bring the tables to the arena and set awards up. Thank you Heather Blanford's husband for bringing me hay. Thank you Heather for always getting it for me!
Thank you to all who helped me with barrelsetting and with other things and also, checking with me to see if anything needed done. Thank you Andrea See and husband for also helping in office etc. Thank you Dallace Ryan for coming up and helping me with getting payouts prepared toward the end, when I announced I was behind and needed help.
If I am missing anyone I am so sorry! Working on the 2nd cup of coffee so brain hasn't kicked in yet.
Thank you Lise Blanton for always letting me at the arena. Thank you Wisty Watson for doing the concession stand.
Also, thank you Samantha Weeks for being there and taking photos all day. You rock!!! And Coconut too! Be sure to get with her to order your pictures this week for that wall of fame or memory keepsake photo album!!!
Thank you to the WAE finals sponsors for helping me make this a success: MidFlorida Credit Union, Carl Motteler with Carls Land Clearing, Garrett Coons with JC Procrete, Shannon Mahan with Mahans Excavating, Lisa Motteler with Carlisa Family Medcal & Aesthetics, Patti Elliott with Saddle Pal, and Denise Smith with Tractor services and Cloverleaf Travel Company.

Please do not take the following personal, it is just me and how I work. When the show begins, only 1 more other person allowed in the announcer's stand with me, unless I call for one more. As you know, I multitask and to stay straight, I cannot think when I have a lot of other stuff going on in the background around me. I want a smooth, flowing show and that is what I aim for each month. This is a personal goal of mine. :)
After results are announced, unless I state that you can come and payout is ready, please do not come rushing in the announcer's stand until I announce it is ready to be picked up.
