Kim Hawkins - 2016 - Vice President
Kim began as a Rangerette Main Team rider in 2016.
Kim has ridden a few drill horses over the years but her current partner is Smoke, a 2009 overo grullo gelding. She said she always has to get a new drill horse because her son steals hers away!
Kim began riding formally when she was 9. She rode dressage for two years before switching strictly to Hunter/Jumper until she was 16 years old. In 1996 Kim was ranked 3rd in the state in 5 divisions (year end rankings). That is awesome!
In 2008 Kim was introduced to drill through a friend and participated in the drill coaches and judges 2 day clinic in Texas. Kim is actually a certified drill judge!
This same friend of Kim's suggested she try out for the CVR in 2016 and the rest is history.
Outside of drill Kim and her son, Delsin who is one of our CVR Youth, like to trail ride at many different lakes and on the river close to their house. They also like to make as many playdays as possible.
Kim is a volunteer foster for a local cat rescue. We all love to see the pictures of her new kitties she posts on fb and hear their stories!
Often we find Kim with her mom, Janette, whom is one of our many favorite Rangerette supporters.

Megan Dockrey - 2004 - Drill Master and Parade Marshall
Megan started on the team in 2004 as a Rangerette Princess and moved to the Main Team for the first time in 2005.
Megan began coaching the youth team in 2014. Megan says "she enjoys getting to teach the kids the mechanics of drill and teamwork so they can carry that on into other aspects of their lives, as well as to the main team."
"At this point I’ve been with the team longer than I’ve been off the team" she said.
Over the years Megan has been blessed to ride two amazing horses. She started Smarty in 2005 and rode him through the 2011 season. Then from 2011 until Dec 2020 Zeus was her amazing drill team rocket.
Megan and her husband, Josh, were married in 2019 and they enjoy movies, building legos, spending time with family, and hopefully once Covid settles, getting to do some traveling. In Megan's words they are both big Harry Potter nerds, in fact that was their wedding theme
Megan and Josh make their home in Mustang, Ok with their two dogs Holly and Kookie.
When asked about the quad team that Megan coaches each year she replied "I've ridden with many different mixes on my quad team and enjoyed every group of ladies I’ve had the pleasure of getting to compete with. I don’t really use a special name, just the Rangerettes. We’ve won the international quad division once, and our divisions a few times around that as well."
Megan is also one of our many mother/daughter duos on the Rangerettes drill team. She says "I love the fact that I get to do this with my Mom every year and that she shared her love of horses with me. We’ve won all the national titles together and it’s been an amazing experience getting to do it with her."
Megan's final quote... "This team has honestly raised me, taught me so many life skills and given me so many great friends through every stage of my life so far and I can’t wait to see how much further my journey with the team will go."

Delsin Bond - 2016
Delsin is a 16 year old from Norman, Ok.
Delsin has been a member of the Youth team since 2016 when she and her mom, Main Team rider Kim Hawkins, decided to try their hands at drill.
Delsin is currently a sophomore and she is hoping to do something music related once she graduates.
Delsin's current hobbies are playing her guitar, she writes her own songs, and she's learning drone videography which is super neat! She has been practicing his drone skills on the drill team at practices for a couple seasons.
We love when Delsin has the time to bring her drone because the videos she takes from above really shows the team a completely different perspective of the drill and it helps us in many different ways. Not too mention it's just makes for a really cool view!!

Claire Foreman - 2015 - Queen
Claire's dad, Marc, says he had her on a horse from the time she was a baby and according to him she never showed a bit of fear! **Definitely a Rangerette in the making at that young age!**
Claire began as a Rangerette Princess riding in parades and rodeo grand entries with the team when she was about 7 years old on a borrowed horse by the name of 'Paint'.
Over the years Claire has worked her way up with the Canadian Valley Rangerettes Youth Team beginning in 2015 riding beside her cousins, Ellise and Lunden, and now she pulls double duty as a CVRY rider but has also worked hard through the ranks to take a place on the CVR Main Team in 2019!
On her very first year as a main team rider Claire was part of the National Championship Team winning the National Title, Rodeo Division and SportsQuest World Cup.
Claire has partnered with some great drill horses over the years. Paint, Misty, and Smarty early on but Claire’s current drill partner for 2021 is Cleo.
Claire's mom, Jan, tells me that 'Sarge' has recently joined their family as a future drill horse for Claire when Cleo decides to retire.
There is something else special I want to highlight about this particular rider.... she is the granddaughter of our team's founder and Drill Master, Nila Birchett.
I asked Claire specifically "what made you want to ride under your grandma and become a Rangerette?"
Claire answered “I liked the idea of riding for a team that my Gaga helped establish and coach for so long. Drill is a unique sport and I’m glad I get to be a part of it."
I also asked Claire "what's your favorite part about riding for your Grandma?"
Claire's answer.. “The best part is spending time with her doing something we both love. We have a lot fun. She has taught me so much about riding. She’s my best mentor and biggest fan. As a bonus I get to wear the red hat she wore when she rode so that is really special.”
Any past or present Rangerette can agree how important and special our red hats are to us so Claire.. to be able to wear the hat that your grandmother wore in the arena so many years ago is absolutely AMAZING!!
Claire also goes on to say "I’ve met some great women over the last several years who have mentored me and taught me a lot about being a Rangerette. They have also helped me grow as a rider.”
Claire is a sophomore at Yukon High School where she is also a member of the Yukon FFA Show Team. She enjoys showing her pigs, competing and being with the other members of the FFA Team.

Sienna Smithson - 2021
Sienna is almost 15 years old and she lives in Mustang, Ok with her family. She is an Elite Power Tumbler, Nate Fleming Awards winner, who loves art, barrel racing and doing construction. Yes.. she said construction!
Sienna said "I love building stuff and doing something people don't think I can do. Lol...I love a good challenge." Not only is Sienna an award winning tumbler, barrel racer, rides drill, works continuously on the ranch with all of her animals, helps with construction projects AND continues to get very good grades in school but she has her own business too! She owns 'Sienna's Pony Parties' for children.
Is there anything this girl can't do??
Since Sienna is our "newest Rangerette" I asked Sienna how she learned about the CVR team and what made her want to try out. She replied.. "I always admired the Rangerette's. I would watch them in awe. I love drill and wanted to get better and learn from the best. Let me just say these ladies have taught me so much. I have learned so much about drill, and lots of life lessons also. The women on the Rangerette's are tough and good, they are National Champions for a reason. My mom told me if I wanted to ride with the best and be the best I needed to pay attention and take constructive criticism and not get my feelings hurt if someone yells at me during the drill. To tell you the truth I cried the first practice, but I waited until I got in the car...lol ...another lesson from mom. Always handle your self like a lady and champion....if you are going to cry do it in private. The ability of this team is intimidating to someone new, but I knew in my heart this is where I wanted to be and I have never backed down from a challenge. I love everything about the Rangerette's."
**I love this young lady's determination!! **
Sienna is partnered with her 12 year old Appaloosa named 'River'. She says that River loves drill just as much as she does.
Along with River, Sienna has a barrel horse named 'MOJO', a back up drill horse named 'Bonnee', and an almost 2 year old quarter horse named 'Annie' that she is training herself and she says she hopes Annie will get to wear that infamous Rangerette breast collar someday!
I finished my conversation with Sienna by her saying "I am so proud that I get to wear that Rangerette uniform and that my horse gets to wear that Rangerette name across his chest. I will always be grateful for the opportunity and will do my best to always represent the team in a positive light."

Lisa was born and raised in northern Virginia where she rode and showed Morgan horses and Thoroughbreds with exposure in many other horse genres.

In her spare time Lisa enjoys all of her animals as she has horses, dogs, cats and chickens at home.
She says she has loved animals all of her life and she began training dogs competitively when she was 12. She has competed in AKC and UKC over the years and has won several titles including 4 National "Dog World" titles. Did anyone else know that about Lisa?? So neat!

In 2008 Lisa began the Canadian Valley Rangerette Youth Team and for many years was able to coach her own daughter along with all the youth of the CVR Main Team members. She says the youth teams "are still one of her favorite things".
Lisa is an accountant who served as CFO for a metal building manufacturer in OKC for 26 years before resigning for a position closer to home that enables her to help her aging parent.
