Welcome to 2nd Go Performance
A non-profit in Central Oregon building skills and community around cutting horses
Begin Your Journey
We are a non-profit organization that rehabilitates, reconditions, and supports viable cutting horses so that they may again participate in the sport of cutting.
Our Horses
Our horses are the name sakes of our program. We seek out talented, seasoned cutting horses that often require TLC, reconditioning, and in some cases, rehabilitation before returning to the work they love.
2nd Go Performance takes the utmost care in maintaining our horses so that they may have a “2nd Go” at their career. All of our horses are maintained under trainer care and veterinarian supervision.
Our Riders
Our riders come from all walks of life. Prior to becoming part of our program, applicants have never before competed in a cutting competition. Our requirement for new riders is a desire to learn and a passion for the horse.
We actively recruit new riders through outreach programs and communication with other teaching and therapeutic riding programs.
Once accepted into the program, all lessons, equipment, and show fees are provided free of charge to first year riders.
Our Community
We embrace change and those who have moved to Central Oregon for a new, better, or different life, and we want you to join us.
The changing landscape and demographics of Deschutes, Crook, and Jefferson County have meant a decline in people participating in western equine sports.
We believe that a bi-product of our rehabilitation work is that it provides a method to attract and recruit new riders from both urban and rural communities. Through these efforts we are able to recruit riders to our sport as well as instill in them quality horsemanship care and skills.
Donate
We accept donations of cash, equipment, and cutting horses.
