“Stubborn as a Mule” is a phrase most of us have heard….however Mules are not truly stubborn, they are actually incredibly intelligent and require a different training technique that horses due in part to their intellect – these long eared half horse and half donkey creatures and their donkey counterparts respond well to coercion and team work rather than dominance, making a well working team between owner and steed an even greater joy to see in action, there will be many Donkey classes as well creating an entertaining and interesting show.

Phil and Bonnie Easley of Grass Valley are well known in Nevada County and beyond for their fine mules as well as their skills in working with them. The Easleys have performed and demonstrated their prowess with their mules at the famous Bishop Mule Days, Draft Horse Classic in Grass Valley and many other venues so it is no surprise that they are bringing their love of mules back to the Penn Valley Rodeo Grounds to host their own AMA Sanctioned Mule Show where competitors can enter many categories from showmanship to my personal favorite the Pack Scramble and everything in-between including English & Western performance classes, cattle events such as penning, sorting and roping, gymkhana, and more. Most back country horsemen rely upon mules for packing tips as they are very sure footed, fearless and have the common sense to avoid dangerous situations more so than a horse.

This is a free show to watch and an amazing opportunity to learn more about the diverse capabilities of mules and donkeys.

The Cook Shack will be open so bring your appetite with you and enjoy a great family friendly weekend.
