The Weekend Cutter :: America's Grass Roots Cutting Horse Show

Wrangler

Wrangler® is enduring American freedom; it's in the spirit of people who work hard, have fun and recognize courageous individuality. As a company, we believe in solid commitments and perseverance in the face of obstacles and challenges. Most of all, we respect ourselves, each other, our western heritage and the environment in which we live.

It's the same as ever, even before the first pair of Wrangler® jeans were made in 1943. Our history runs parallel to the rise of the country, our jeans worn by the same people who built it.

Purina Mills

From its inception, the primary difference between Purina Mills and its competitors was an insistence on quality. In 1916, Purina Mills was the first in the feed business to establish an analytical laboratory to test the final product before it went out to customers. As the largest feed manufacturer in the United States, Purina Mills was able to insist on top quality ingredients from sellers and to this day maintains a list of "approved suppliers" so that it doesn't waste time with those who might sell lower quality materials. Purina Mills has also spearheaded the industry's most innovative system for testing ingredients and monitoring nutritional consistency.

NCHA Cutting - A New Frontier

You put your hand down and feel the rush and momentum, the big moves, the hard stops. You cannot believe a horse can do this on his own. It's electrifying and addictive. Your first words were probably, "Just give me one more cow!" If this sounds like you, don't worry you are not alone. Thousands of people annually experience the thrill and beauty of riding a cutting horse for the first time.

"The NCHA promotes and celebrates the cutting horse, whose origin on Western ranches allows us to support ranching and its western heritage. By establishing rules for the conduct of cutting horse shows, NCHA strives to give cutters a level playing field and a progressive class structure, which accommodates everyone from the beginner to the advanced competitor. NCHA draws on the diverse talents and background of its members, and encourages their participation in helping it achieve these goals." www.nchacutting.com

Smart N Slick

Smart N Slick is one of the most elegant, beautiful, and charismatic stallions out there today, with mane, & tail to die for. Smart N Slick has the temperament of a kids pony, a dream to handle, and care for. He is siring foals,with these same attributes today. There are a LOT of Stallions out there, and some GREAT ones, but most of the GREAT ones, showed at a few aged events, generated lots of earnings, then were in the Stallion Barn before they were 6 years old.

There is no greater testament to the sheer heart, and guts it took, to be able to accomplish this show record. That was a 99.2% chance of getting a check, every time he unloaded out of the trailer, from California, to Louisiana. When you are looking for Ability, Athleticism, Attitude, and Affordability, there is only one choice....get a "SLICK".He is the only cutting stallion in history to show 205 times and win or place 203 times. He is the sire of two-time PtHA Working Cow Horse Champion, Slick Little Playgirl.

Smart 'N Slick is currently standing at stud at Meridian Animal Hospital under the guidance of Larry J. Lentschke, DVM - Equine Specialist. Facility Located 45 miles north of Waco on Highway 6, & 45 miles south of Fort Worth by way of Hwy 174.

Careity is dedicated to providing on site support services in an oncology setting for economically challenged cancer patients and through early detection in North Texas. The pediatric palliative care program is directed at providing relief to children with devastating diseases and life threatening illnesses at Cook Children's Hospital in Fort Worth. Since its inception, Careity Foundation has set the platinum standard in the nonprofit community.

Careity Foundation was the first in the nation to offer oncology massage in the chemotherapy room to relieve the side effects of drug therapy in patients. In 2009 we introduced an unprecedented expression of compassion for women in our community, as Careity Foundation initiated the first annual Careity Day offering free mammograms to underinsured residents of Parker, Johnson and Tarrant Counties in Texas.

Any Careity Day participant diagnosed with breast cancer recieves individualized treatment - including biopsy, surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and hospitalization - this service is provided cost-free by Careity Day partners. The effort is believed to be the first private initiative of its kind in the United States. In 2009 more than 200 women took advantage of this opportunity. http://careity.org

Children's Advocacy Center of Johnson County

The Children's Advocacy Center of Johnson County was formed to protect and serve the youngest and most helpless victims in our society, children. The Children's Advocacy Center works closely with law enforcement agencies and trained professional investigators within a "child friendly" environment to provide the services needed for these young victims and non-offending family members. Today, Children's Advocacy Centers across the nation provide a child friendly environment where all agencies now come to the child.

The child is interviewed once by a trained forensic interviewer, and all agency partners involved work together as a team to coordinate their investigations and services for the child and their non-offending family members through the Children's Advocacy Center. The Children's Advocacy Center also provides crisis intervention, individual and group counseling, play therapy, court school, court accompaniment, resource referrals, assistance with crime victim's compensation paperwork, and personal advocacy. Our purpose is to lessen the trauma and to help restore hope in the lives of children.

All cases that come through the Children's Advocacy Center must be referred through law enforcement or Child Protective Services in Johnson County, or surrounding counties without Advocacy Centers.

We provide services to child victims of sexual abuse, severe physical abuse, and child witnesses to homicides and other violent crimes. Services are also provided for non-offending family members.
