South Hazelton resident, Kassie Vipond has started off the gymkhana circuit this year with three first places and one third after competing in the first competition of the year in Terrace last week.
Vipond hopes to compete in as many events as she can this year and is already gearing up for the Houston Rodeo on May long weekend.
She recently took first in the barrel race, keyhole event and the scurry race and finished third in the figure 8.
She is also participating in the Kispiox Drill team this year which is hoping to have an impressive performance with almost 30 riders at this year’s Kispiox Rodeo on the first weekend in June.
