Kakeyow Cowboys Rodeo Association Crowns Champions

Mr. Keisig: — Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Kakeyow Cowboys Rodeo Association recently crowned their 2023 champions over a three-day final in Saskatoon. “kakeyow” means “all together,” and this organization allows families to remain all together by offering age groups from peewee to adulthood.

This year’s winners in the youth division are as follows. In the peewee division, barrel racing season leader and finals champion was Jude Martin; team roping season leader, Denym McPhee, and finals champion, Cheyenne Christman; steer riding season leader, Dawson Danberg, and finals champion, Reid Steeg. Aislyn Hedin won both the high-point season leader and finals championships.

In the junior division Blake Hedin was the season leader in barrel racing and breakaway, while Allee Kapeller won the finals barrel racing, and Anna McCuaig won the finals breakaway. Team roping season leader was Jhett Cross, and Charlee Kapeller won the finals. Steer riding finals champion was Jayce Rieger, and Molly Maynard won season leader titles in steer riding and highpoint. The finals high-point champion was Allee Kapeller.

Mr. Speaker, these athletes are all under the age of 16 and represent the future of rodeo here in Saskatchewan. I have to recognize our own Shelby Lockie in winning the ladies’ breakaway roping championship as well, Mr. Speaker. I invite all members to join me in congratulating each one of these on their championship victory. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
