Thanks to our incredible sponsors- without them, this event would not be possible. Nor would it be possible without the small army it takes to produce this one day event. There is always a team of TZ friends and family who put so much energy into the preparations, schedules, entertainment, bull care, set up and breakdown. Thank you all.
