Barriere youth wins team penning competition at 2015 Calgary Stampede

Thirteen-year-old Kash Siqouin a big cheque recipient last week after winning the Team Penning Competition

Thirteen-year-old Kash Siqouin (middle) was the recipient of a big cheque last week after winning the Team Penning Competition Class #7 Championship at the Calgary Stampede.  He and lower mainland teammates Trish Esworthy (l) and Brent Shaw (r) competed against 214 teams in their penning division, with Kash’s team taking home a cool $30,195 for the win.  Kash also rode on another team in the same class and this team secured the third place award.  His mom, Nicole Siqouin, says, “Kash was a little rockstar, and he rode my horse Bald Face all the way to the pay window.”  She noted he has only recently started to ride her horse, but by all appearances it looks like this pair have already capitalized the word “TEAM” in their event.
