Royalty Contest Buckles:

Dance Contest Buckles:

When ordering event buckles you need to specify the event, but it is a good idea to be non-gender specific with your buckle designs. This allows you to use any leftover awards from one gender for possible ties in the other.

 

RIBBONS:

Ribbons will be awarded to the first 5 places per go-round, per event. It is recommended that ribbons be non-gender specific and not dated so that leftovers can be re-used.

To provide enough (non-gender specific) ribbons for both days you need to order 4 ribbons each for 1st through 5th places for each of the following events:

  • Bull Riding (20 ribbons)
  • Bareback Bronc Riding (20 ribbons)
  • Calf Roping on Foot (20 ribbons)
  • Team Roping (20 ribbons)
  • Barrel Race (20 ribbons)
  • Goat Dressing (20 ribbons)
  • Steer Riding (20 ribbons)
  • Chute Dogging (20 ribbons)
  • Breakaway Roping (20 ribbons)
  • Pole Bending (20 ribbons)
  • Flag Race (20 ribbons)
  • Steer Decorating (20 ribbons)
To provide enough (non-gender specific) ribbons for both days you need to order 6 ribbons each for 1st through 5th places for each of the following events:
  • Wild Drag Race (3 ribbons for each place each day = 30 ribbons)

You also need to order ribbons for the All-Around Cowboy, his 4 runners-up, and the All Around Cowgirl and her 4r runners-up. That is an additional ten (10) ribbons. These should be larger and more elaborate than the event ribbons, and should be gender-specific.

Your total ribbon count should be 280 ribbons. It is recommended that you order a few extra ribbons in case of ties.

The Hosting Association may choose to award additional "honorary" buckles or ribbons to honor special contributors or VIPs, such as:

  • Grand Marshal(s)
  • Local Political Dignitaries
  • Entertainment Celebrities
  • Major Sponsors or Supporters
  • Any other appropriate purpose
