History:
Tri-K Barrel Race was created in September 2001 and incorporated in 2002. After organizing competitions for various round-up clubs and other organizations, the partners (Dona Kay Rule and Lona Spears) decided to try it on their own. What resulted was a professionally run weekly competition, which drew competitors from all over Oklahoma and several surrounding states. We are committed to producing professionally operated barrel races! As barrel racers, we know what you want in a barrel race - great ground conditions, fair practices and time management. Due to their commitment to fairness and having a fun time, this organization continues to grow, drawing more competitions and competitors each year. Tri-K events range from weekly jackpot series to single day and major weekend events.
Tri-K also has grown as a barrel racing producer, and often contracts with various committees and clubs to assist in marketing and producing their events. Contact us to help manage your event!
