On March 12, 2023, the 1st event of the 2023 Circuit of Barriler@s, Inc was celebrated at Hacienda Siesta Alegre, Rio Grande. We thank Greg Jackson and his wife Linda for giving us the opportunity and sponsorship of this event at their beautiful multi-purpose arena. There was participation from 17 riders. The association hosted the activity with the purpose of motivating riders to become members and aspire to qualify for the National Barrel Horse Association (NBHA) competitions held annually in the United States. We are a nonprofit organization that supports and promotes the sport of rodeo, specializing in barrel racing and gymkhana events. Our goal for our first two years is to reach 50 members. We start from the age of 5 and it is a sport for everyone and all types of horses.
