Meet the Member Tyler Kippes

story by Siri Stevens Tyler Kippes is leading the bull riding in the CPRA – and leading by a long shot. “It’s been a good season and I’m fortunate to be where I am,” said the 16 year old from Eaton, Colorado. “It was my goal to win the CPRA on my Rookie card.” Tyler was riding last year at a few local jackpots and then ended up tearing his PCL on his knee and…

Heidi’s Notes

by Heidi Geesen I can’t believe that it is already the middle of August. The kids are starting to get excited to start school but bummed that their summer is coming to an end. And the rodeo season is slowly coming to an end. Please keep a close eye on the website as well as Facebook for any updates to rodeos in regard to 72 hour Health Papers being required. I would like to thank…

Meet the Member Montana Barlow

story by Michele Toberer Family ties have fueled Montana Barlow’s drive for riding saddle bronc horses in the Colorado Professional Rodeo Association, and the lessons he learned as he recalls every little detail of watching his father, Eugene Barlow, step over the chutes on to broncs when Montana was just 5 years old, are helping him with his own rides now. “I always enjoyed going with my dad and hanging out at the bucking chutes…

Meet the Member Titus Adams

story by Siri Stevens Titus Adams, from Greeley, Colorado, rides bulls in the CPRA and plans to continue riding in that association. He’s been a member for four years and loves the association. “The CPRA is a great opportunity to get used to high caliber stock and teaches me how to book my trips. It’s great for local people who can’t travel fulltime,” said the 23 year old, who loves to ride bulls. “It’s hard…

Meet the Member Hadley Jackson

story by Siri Stevens Hadley Jackson has been competing in the Colorado Pro Rodeo Association for 13 years and is the current Vice President. “It’s a great association,” he said. “Both my wife, Samantha, and I compete.” He competes in steer wrestling and she does barrels, team roping, and breakaway roping. He learned his event from Jace Honey, and started in high school. “I won CSHSRA Finals my senior year, in 2007.” He went on…

Meet the Members Atkinson Family

story by Siri Stevens Julie Atkinson, her husband, Dale, and 19-year-old Chase make their home in Elizabeth, Colorado. The family ropes together, and made the decision this year to join the CPRA…again. Dale joined the CPRA the year it started - 1974. “It was called the CSRA then – I was 13 and it was awesome.” He was a member for almost 20 years. “I won the team roping in 1975 at the age of…

Meet the Member Heidi Geesen

story by Siri Stevens Heidi Geesen is the new secretary for the CPRA. She will take over her duties February 1. One thing is for certain, Heidi is not new to rodeo. She has been competing since she was five, working her way through the Wyoming High School Rodeo Association (1994 Wyoming state high school goat tying champion), then moving to college at Casper where she was a three time Central Rocky Mountain region goat…

Meet the Member Jenna Pruitt

story by Siri Stevens Jenna has competed in the CPRA for 7 years, winning Rookie of the Year in 2011 and average in the barrel racing at this year’s Finals. The stay-at-home mom to 10-month-old Chloe Rose spends her time traveling with her PRCA tie-down roping husband, Riley, or home on the ranch near Gering, Nebraska. Her sister, Nicole Waggoner, talked her into getting back into chasing cans in the CPRA this year very late…

Meet the Member Jase Staudt

story by Siri Stevens Jase Staudt is leading the All Around for the CPRA. “The CPRA is a great association – I like the rodeos, they have great stock and a great board of directors to put the best rodeos on. I can work and still go to the rodeos – usually three a weekend. They have great added money and the rodeos are very competitive – there’s a lot of talent at them.” The…

Meet the Committee Montrose County Fair & Rodeo

story by Siri Stevens Montrose County Fair & Rodeo is celebrating 132 years, more than 15 of those being a CPRA sanctioned event. Held the last week of July, the rodeo is usually a two-day event, but this year the fair was shortened by a few days and the weekend will be packed with not only a rodeo, but the livestock sale will happen after the morning slack. Then there will be fiddle contest before…

Meet the Committee Cowboy Up in Kiowa

story by Siri Stevens Cowboy Up in Kiowa began in 1995 after starting as the Elbert County Rodeo for the first two years. This award-winning rodeo has grown over the years, winning the CPRA’s Super Purse rodeo four times in a row now along with 20 other awards over its history. According to board president, Angelique Dieker, the formula for success is pretty simple: “We believe in taking care of the contestants, our volunteers and…

Meet the Member Nicole Waggoner

story by Lily Weinacht Nicole Waggoner didn’t expect to be the CPRA Barrel Racing Champion last year. The 22 year old from Pueblo West, Colorado, went into the finals sitting second, aiming to win the average, but she climbed to first place in the year-end standings after winning the first round. Her horse pulled a shoe, but she was able to finish out on her bay mare, who was just coming back after a summer…
