The roping was held at Simpson’s Arena in Wickenburg, and Roper Nation supplied the cattle Quoting Woodard, “It all started back in the COVID years. The chairman of the board of directors asked if anyone had ideas to help bolster our fundraising. Because of COVID, many of the rodeos and fund raising events were canceled. In the meantime, cowboys continued to get hurt and the fund continued to help them financially. That’s when the idea was born to have a Crisis Fund roping.” 505 teams roped in three different pots on this oneday event, raising just over $10,000 for the JCCF. Special thanks go to all the sponsors: Justin Boots, American Hats, PRCA, Cactus Ropes, and Corriente Buckles all donated merchandise to make up the prizeline. Kyle Krisman of Roper National also deserves a tip of the hat for his generous donation of a big portion of the cattle money to bolster our success. There was also a silent auction with items donated by local businesses in Wickenburg, which raised more than $2,000 to add to the total. Thanks to Woodard’s wife and daughter calling on these great local business folks, we found that they like team ropers. They told us during the winter months when the ropers are in town they make their biggest profits! Thanks also to the ropers who came out to support this great cause. Winners in the #7.5 Over 60 roping were Buzz Sweeden and Randy Cumbie. Winners in the #8.5 Over 60 roping were Jeff Jasper and Lee Richmond. Winners in the #9.5 Over 60 roping were Don Schmeling and Dan Ballek.
