201004WildDeuceCattleCall

Well how is this for a great deal?  The Wild Deuce Girls, Brenda & Terri couldn’t decide who should draw the name out of the hat to determine the winner of this draw so… they both did!! There are 2 lucky winners!! And their names are…

April (6) and Kathy (9).

A special thanks to Wild Deuce Outfitting for sponsoring our draw and generously doubling the prize. Anyone looking for a little adventure this summer should check them out. In fact any of us who love horses and the outdoors should get this ticked off our “bucket list” pronto. It’s time we all had a little good old fashioned fun. No cell phones. A real “vacation”. Visit their website to get a glimpse of what you could actually experience. A “once in a lifetime experience” that you are going to want to repeat over and over again. Who knows? The good Lord willing and the creeks don’t rise, I might even get a chance to get out there this summer.

What follows is from the original draw. Do not enter this draw as it is over.

Why not make this year the one where you actually went on an exciting adventure instead of just dreamed about it? Ever dream of herding cattle on an open range with beautiful mountain vistas for a background? Riding in some of Canada’s most beautiful wilderness? This is your opportunity. Don’t miss it. If you are the lucky winner of this draw you will get 50% off one of Alberta’s great adventures.

Your hosts will be none other than the Wild Deuce Retreats & Outfitting folks. That pretty much assures that you will be riding a horse that is well suited for you and in the company of some fun loving cowboys (and girls) with many years of experience. This is one of those experiences that you will remember for the rest of your life. You get to be part of the actual working team. There is more detailed information about the Mountain Cattle Call & Cattle Drives trip on the Wild Deuce Website. Go ahead, read about it but be ready to want to go. This is one of those events that only a few of us will ever get to experience.
