Learn to Rope in Boonville
Roping can be a little more challenging, but never fear. The Warrick Saddle Club is hosting a free roping clinic at its grounds in Boonville.
And the best part? You don’t need a horse to participate.
Head down to 205 E. Columbia Street in Boonville on September 24th for the free clinic. Pros will be there offering help, tips, and instruction to participants. Lessons on the ground are at 6 PM and on horseback from 7-9 PM.
All ages and abilities are welcome, so whether you’re an old pro or a total tenderfoot, you can start learning a new skill, and they will have extra ropes if you'd like to borrow one.
Organizers do ask that you RSVP and check in at the booth before participating.

Warrick Saddle Club Hosting Trunk or Treat
The Warrick Saddle Club also announced that it will be hosting a Trunk or Treat on October 30.
Local business owners can set up a booth for free. If you’d like to participate, just contact the Warrick Saddle Club to reserve your spot.
So, if you’ve ever wanted to learn how to rope and ride, maybe this is your sign.
After all, Toby Keith already told you what you shoulda done.
