POSTPONED

Due to Covid restrictions our banquet is

postponed until date to be determined.

​

We will soon release info for a great deal on the adjoining hotel.

Thank you Mike DeLange for helping us organize

a fun awards weekend for our members!
Many of our members will arrive the night before to hang out and celebrate before the following morning's brunch, so please feel free to drive up on the 30th!

We are currently monitoring the COVID-19 situation and will plan according to the safety guidelines in place at the time. 
The banquet room does provide ample space to safely social distance and be regularly sanitized.

We are in the planning stages of hosting a show at the

MSU Pavilion on MAY 14th, 15th, and 16th, 2021!
We will tentatively offer vendor spaces,

so if you are interested in renting an area for your business during the show, please let us know through PM, email (greatlakescutting@gmail.com),

Please let us know if you are interested in being a general sponsor

or would like to sponsor a specific class as well! 
We are also tentatively providing 4 year old classes,

an amateur tournament, and a full slate of classes all three days! 
There will be plenty of stalls and hookups,

so come join us for a full weekend of fun in the cutting pen!
 

The address for the Pavilion is

A great weekend for GLCHA at the MiRCHA show!

We loved seeing new faces from the cowhorse crowd along with

our regular cutters who made it out for one last GLCHA show this year.

​

Congratulations everyone on making it through an unusual, yet fantastic season! 

​

 While we do not have many photos from the weekend (our social media manager was busy showing with us and in the reined cowhorse classes),

​

Check out TM Photography and Design for all your professional winning pictures from the weekend!

You also have access to free videos from your runs through the MiRCHA,

but if you would like videos filmed straight on from the judge's perspective,

please contact Andrea Becker, our official NCHA certified videographer.

We are very proud of three of our GLCHA Youth who participated in the

MiRCHA costume class Saturday night.

Myla Hochstein and Ryann and Joey Grasman put together a couple of creative costumes!

Even the Grasmans' dog, Murphy, put his outfit on.

We are not sure how he felt about it, but Myla's horse "Spoon" and Ryann's horse "General" are definitely a couple of saintly geldings. Not to mention, they were each busy showing with us all day! 
 

We would also like to congratulate our GLCHA members who

absolutely killed it in the reined cowhorse! 

 Starting off with Crystal DeWitt and her famous 2019 Congress cutting champion Oh Why Not who WON the whole Non-Pro MiRCHA weekend!

She received a saddle for the overall high score, a trophy for the Non-Pro Limited class,

and a buckle for the Non-Pro Herdwork. Way to go Crystal and Ivy!! 
Congratulations Joey Grasman on winning the Youth Herdwork class! 
Congratulations Courtney Overstreet on winning the 2 Handed Rookie class

and the Non-Pro Hackamore! 
 Congratulations Amanda Powell on winning the Non-Pro Select Boxing class! 
 Not pictured is Shelby Agnew who tied for first in the Non-Pro Boxing! 

 It is so awesome to hear that some of our cutters stepped into the cowhorse

(as well as the costume) pen and had a successful and fun time! 
 Thank you MiRCHA for having us! We hope to see y'all next year!
