2025 T4T Ride- Trails4Transplant
Organ, Eye & Tissue Donor Awareness & Fundraising Event
About our Hosts
The Korkow Rodeo has been a local stock contractor since 1947. They have had stock nominated for every National Finals Rodeo since its inception in 1959! This family has ties to the land for many generations and stories to go with it. We are overjoyed with appreciation to the Korkow family for allowing us to hold this event on their very scenic family ranch! When you see Jim, Carol & Misty Korkow at the event, please share your appreciation!
Camping & Accommodations
On-site ranch camping is available!
- This will be primitive camping, there are no hookups for electric or water. Porta potties will be on site.
- Parking assistance is available if you’d like help!
- There will be a bulk tank with a hose to water horses. Community water buckets will be set out or individuals can choose to fill personal buckets directly from the hose.
- Generators are permitted. If they sit on the ground, a board will need to be placed under them for fire prevention measures. If you do not have a board, we will have some on hand as well, just let us know during sign in!
