It's hard to believe, but in just a few short weeks our trainers and rescue horses will be heading to Lennox for the 2026 Dakota Showdown Horse Trainer Challenge Finale!
Behind the scenes, we're busy putting together the event program, signs, awards, and all of the little details that bring the weekend together.
One piece we're still working on is our event sponsorships.
Whether you're a local business looking to connect with hundreds of horse lovers or an individual who wants to help make this event possible, we'd love to have you join us.
Sponsorship opportunities start at just $150 and help support everything from trainer awards to stalls, signage, and the event itself—allowing more of the proceeds to go right back into caring for the horses.
If you've been thinking about sponsoring the Dakota Showdown, now is a great time. We'll be finalizing sponsor recognition for our printed program soon.

Thank you to the sponsors who have already committed to helping make the 2026 Dakota Showdown possible. We truly couldn't do it without you.
