It’s time to show your spirit, support your favorite horse-trainer team, and help us raise critical funds for the 2025 Dakota Showdown Horse Trainer Challenge!
Each team has their own Fan Favorite donation link, and the team that raises the most money wins a special prize at the Finale. But that’s not all...
Every $1 donated = 1 raffle entry into our White Elephant-style prize drawing!
We’ll draw one supporter from each team at the Finale—each winner picks a prize OR steals one already chosen. It’s fun, chaotic, and a total fan favorite in its own right!
Donations support Gentle Spirit Horses Rescue & the Dakota Showdown, helping us give rescue and mustang horses a second chance at a bright future.
Want to go one step further? Grab a Team T-shirt or Tumbler and wear your support proudly at the Finale!

Finale Date: August 23 & 24, 2025
Location: Yankton, South DakotaLet’s see who has the most fans, the biggest hearts, and the loudest cheering section!
