Greetings! Our First Meeting for our new Rochester, WA Chapter!
Come meet and greet and see what we are all about. I can’t wait to see you all. There is no cost to meet at Figaro’s but I will purchase a couple of pizzas. Maybe show support of a wonderful local business with the purchase of a soda, but do not feel obligated. 🙂
I will post a zoom meeting link on our Facebook page and attempt to provide an online option if that will help for people to be able to attend.
Contact me with any questions!
Mounted Shooting is the nation’s fastest growing equestrian sport. Competitors wearing two single-action 45 caliber guns race against the clock, navigating through a variety of course patterns while shooting at balloons.

I’m going to put together an agenda (in all my spare time lol) But we are having this at Figaro’s in Grand Mound again (Rochester).
Let us know if you can make it! There is a facebook event that you can find on out chapter page. Check there for updates also.
Things to think about for the meeting…what do you want to see happen in our chapter, how can you contribute? What events might you like to see added to the calendar and can you commit to rounding up cowgirls on a roster for your events?
Looking forward to seeing you all!!

Hello! Rochester Chapter is putting on a small Trail Ride, starting a bit early to beat the heat just in case it is hot.
We will meet at the equestrian parking lot (the north lot of the two parking areas on the West side of Case Road. See directions below). A Discover Pass is required and must be displayed on your dash. Please do not leave valuables in your vehicle or trailer.
An equipment safety check will be conducted prior to taking off, and helmets are strongly encouraged, but I will also check with Cowgirls HQ if they are required or not for a cowgirl organized ride. 🙂
This will be a walking only trail ride, and shorter for those of use whose horses (or riders!) may not be as conditioned.
Please keep in mind, following the cowgirl (and true horsemanship feel) we will start as a group and end as a group and leave no one behind. 🙂
Directions:
From the north, take I-5 South to exit 95. Keep left at the fork to continue onto Maytown Road SW (follow signs for Littlerock). Turn left onto Case Road SW. There are two parking lots. The first one you come to after the Scatter Creek Stables is used primarily by horse riders with their trailers. The second parking lot, a bit down the road, is for cars only. A Discover Pass is required to park at both lots.
Enjoy rodeo action at the professional level at the Red Desert Roundup PRCA Rodeo.
From the classic events of Saddle Bronc , bareback, the fan favorite of bull riding, and the pretty girls & fast horses of barrel racing. Don’t forget the classic timed events of team roping, steer wrestling, and calf roping.
Pre Show events may vary but they usually have mutton busting, teen cash scramble, and the adult cash scramble.
Come join us for a little fellowship together as we seek to grow closer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Join us as we study through the book of Philippians currently. Non-denominational Christian group, but I do come from a Pentecostal background. 🙂
Want to know more about Jesus? Want fellowship with a few like minded gals? It is a small, very casual, very come as you are group. We would love to have you join us! We hope to do this once a month!
Join in on the fun of the local county fair. From livestock shows to fair food, exhibits, vendors, the carnival and concerts there is a little bit of something for everyone.
See y’all at the fair
Come hang out at my house for a Potluck Meeting! Just do not mind the chaos of a very busy family home and lots of unfinished projects lying around and we will do great! LOL
On the Facebook event on our 40SC Rochester page, there is a comment with a Poll that you can indicate what you would like to bring if you plan on attending. But do not feel pressured to bring anything, we want you to show up even if you cannot bring anything! 🙂
I’m looking forward to seeing you all and hanging out!!!

C.M.O. is “competitive” because you compete, as an individual or a team, against other riders to find all of the hidden objective stations. This is a timed event and you compete for a placing for that ride. The points you and your horse earn add up towards year-end placing and lifetime points with the National Association of Competitive Mounted Orienteering (N.A.C.M.O.) and your State organization.
The “mounted” part of the name is because the game is played on horseback. In theory, you shouldn’t have to ever get off the horse as each objective station should be visible from horseback.
And, finally, “orienteering” because you must be able to orient your self on a provided map and find your way around the course. The use of a map and compass, navigating your way around the designated course, identifying landmarks and finding the objective stations is what orienteering is all about.
What C.M.O. is NOT, is an endurance or competitive riding race. In those sports, you follow a set course for a set distance and try to make the best time of all the competitors while getting a good “health” reading for your horse.
In C.M.O. you use your map to pick your route to find all the objective stations following whatever route you think is best to get around the course. Ingenuity, strategy and creativity are all useful.
Like endurance or competitive riding, however, the longer courses can cover many miles over all types of terrain. Common sense says you should have your horse in good shape and conditioned if you plan on riding long distances.
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO RIDE A C.M.O.?
First you need a horse. It is, after all, a mounted sport. Any type of equine is allowed. Mules, ponies, show horses, horses off the track and backyard pets are welcome. Your horse must be at least three years old to compete.
You will also need a compass, small writing pad and pencil.
Other suggested items would be weather appropriate clothing, water, first aid supplies, lunch, and horse water and feed. Not all areas where rides are sponsored have potable water or water for your horse.
Contact Kathy Davis for exact location and details!
No reservations required! Show up and ride the course anytime from 10am – 6pm
(Use to be Bolendar Horse Park)
Full use of Mountain Trail Course and outdoor arena. Overnight Stalls and Camping available.
Please leave no trace…all manure, straw, shavings, hay, etc. needs to be picked up and disposed of before leaving. When you are ready to leave, please notify a staff member and they will check your area and return your haul in fee once cleaned. (Check with staff when signing in, but I believe the haul in fee is separate from the $25 per horse per day fee) 🙂
Call Staci Sherer with questions, per their flier. (503) 812-7688
I (Kasey Omon) will be there with a roster or will arrange for one to be there, but please let me know/text me if you go so I can get you on the roster! My number is 360-561-3773
