Just Keep Riding Events

Just Keep Riding Events At Just Keep Riding Events, we believe in one simple truth: no matter what happens… JUST KEEP RIDING.

Join us as we carry on the legacy of Cow Pony Productions and build a community that lifts each other up! Just Keep Riding Events was created from a simple truth learned both in the arena and in life: no matter what comes your way… JUST KEEP RIDING! Built on the tradition of Cow Pony Productions, founded by Wendy Wedemeyer, Just Keep Riding Events is honored to continue the legacy she began. We we

lcome everyone to be part of the JKR Events family, because we’ve seen firsthand what happens when a community comes together and believes in this sport. We’ve watched strangers become friends, families jump in to help without being asked, and riders cheer each other on — even on the tough days. That’s why we started Just Keep Riding Events: not just to produce sortings, but to create a home for the people who love this sport as much as we do!

If you’ve ever thought:
👉 “I’m not quite ready yet…”
This is your show.
The Stepping Stones Derby & Schooling Show is built for those in-between moments—
where you’re learning, growing, and figuring it out.
You don’t have to be perfect to get in the pen.
You just have to take the next step.

We created the Stepping Stones Derby & Schooling Show for one simple reason:
👉 There aren’t enough opportunities to learn in a show environment.
Not every run needs to be high stakes.
Not every rider is ready for that level of pressure.
This show is about:
• Getting in the pen
• Figuring things out
• Building better horses
• Becoming better riders
All in an environment that supports growth!

Slick up those brushpoppers and crank that hair sky‑high —
we’re sortin’ BACK TO THE 80s at the Mid‑State Fair July 18–19 🤠✨

Neon, fringe, mullets, crimped curls… if it screams 1985, wear it.
Come ride, sort, and strut your retro swagger in the arena.

Double points. Big fun. Bigger hair.
Let’s ride like the 80s never ended.
