As August draws to a close, we thought it’d be a good idea to look back and reflect on all the fun we had this month! We are grateful to have such a lovely community and we kindly thank all the visitors who joined us for our August activities!

Meet our Rope spinning Instructuors.
Kevin Fitzpatrick, based in Bandera, Texas—the Cowboy Capital of the World—has more than 40 years of experience performing at rodeos, dinner shows, corporate events, and countless other venues. A World Champion Trick Roper, Kevin has also competed on the Guinness World Record show in Munich, Germany. He is known for his versatility with both poly and cotton ropes and for performing on the ground and on horseback.

Will Fitzpatrick started performing alongside his father at around three years old and has grown up in the Western entertainment industry. He has performed at rodeos, dinner shows, corporate events, and other productions while developing his own style of trick roping. Will is also a filmmaker, and in 2022, he filmed a documentary exploring the art and history of trick roping, interviewing some of the finest trick ropers in the world and researching the legendary performers who came before them. Today, Kevin and Will continue to perform both separately and together. Between them, they showcase nearly every style of trick roping, blending generations of experience, tradition, showmanship, and a shared passion for keeping the Western art form alive.
