Jade Thompson & Hazel

#showdownteamhazel

Hazel will be working with Jade Thompson, who has a passion for horses and a four-year-old daughter who shares her love for them. Having been around horses her whole life, Jade has honed her skills by training several horses, ranging from weanlings to advancing green broke horses. She holds a degree in equine management and equine science from Ellsworth Community College, and she's eager to put her education to the test by taking on the challenge of training one of the rescue horses.

The 2024 Dakota Showdown Teams are working hard this summer. You can help them earn the "Fan Favorite" award by donating now! The team that raises the most will be named the "Fan Favorite".

For even more fun we are holding a White Elephant Ticket Raffle. For every dollar donated you will have a ticket put into your team's jar at the Showdown. There is one large prize to be drawn from the Fan Favorite jar ... and then we'll start drawing for smaller prizes based on amount raised. The team with the least amount of donations will draw a winner first, and the winner will chose a prize. The next amount will have the opportunity to steal their prize or pick a new one. If the prize is stolen, the person who lost their prize can either steal another or pick a new prize.

All prizes other than the grand prize will be in the $20-40 range. Prizes can only be stolen twice; once it is stolen the second time the person keeps it. You do not need to be present to win. If you are not present, you can nominate someone to choose for you or a volunteer will choose a prize for you from the table. Winner to pay any shipping required to receive their prize.
