“The true cowgirl is someone with the spirit, and it doesn’t mean that she comes from a ranch or the West,
but just a woman who has a belief in herself and is gritty. And ready to take on any challenge.”
~ Tammy Pate
My grandparents ranched in the Big Coulee of Ryegate, Montana, and that’s where I spent most of my summers growing up. My grandma, Betty, was my mentor and taught me to ride, to bake, and to sew.
She was my hero: a rancher and a true cowgirl. She grew up starting colts, raised her family, and ranched her whole life.
My mom Shirley and my dad, Gordon, raised three girls; I’m the oldest. They raised us in the rodeo world. We rode horses every day. My dad was our coach and we spent our youth going to junior, high school, and then college rodeos.
My parents instilled confidence in us and it didn’t matter if it had anything to do with horses or a job or what we did. They just really instilled the belief in ourselves that we could do anything.
