The second and final Watch Lake/Green Lake Gymkhana of the 2013 season takes place Aug. 10 at the Green Lake gymkhana grounds, near Little Horse Lodge.

It features standard events like barrel racing, stake race, pole bending, key hole and a few novelty races for age divisions, peewee, junior, intermediate and senior.

Races start at noon and rider registration is at 10:30 a.m. Competitors ride for ribbons, prize money and points toward aggregate awards. At the end of the day, aggregate winners for the day and for the season will be announced, and prizes awarded.

Bring along a lawn chair and sit in the shade of the aspen trees or find a premium seat on the bleachers.

The gymkhanas are hosted by the Watch Lake/North Green Lake Community Association and have been a summer highlight in the community for more than 50 years.

Gate admission for all ages is $2.
