Open Yth Sr GBB Final Ad.pdfWelcome to the Glacier Barrel Bash Futurity, Derby, & Open 4D
For over 27 years, the Glacier Barrel Bash has been a beloved staple in Kalispell, Montana’s Flathead Valley, drawing barrel racing enthusiasts from near and far. Hosted under the Montana Barrel Horse Association (MBHA) District 5, this exciting event has brought together riders of all levels to celebrate the sport and its vibrant community.
In the Fall of 2024, Josie Jakeway approached Win$um Productions with an exciting opportunity: to collaborate on the creation of a Futurity and Derby alongside the Glacier Barrel Bash, pending approval from the MBHA District 5 membership. With the green light, we hit the ground running, combining our expertise to form Win$um and Co.
Our Mission:
At Win$um and Co., our goal is to create a fun, user-friendly experience that encourages open barrel racers of all levels to explore the world of Futurities and Derbies. We're dedicated to providing a top-tier competition with an emphasis on arena setup, ground conditions, and all the finer details that help young horses gain confidence and race strong.
The Event:
Join us each year on Father’s Day weekend—June 13-15, 2025—for the Glacier Barrel Bash Futurity, Derby, & Open 4D!
Futurity: For 4- and 5-year-old horses
Derby: For 5- to 8-year-old horses
Open 4D:
10K Diamond Classic Sidepot
1,500.00 BBI Sidepot
UBRC Super Sidepot
Our commitment is to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for both competitors and horses, fostering a sense of community while offering a challenging and rewarding competition. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a newcomer to barrel racing, Glacier Barrel Bash is the place to be!
We look forward to seeing you there!

We will once again be UBRC sanctioned. Our event is a Super Sidepot/Shakin Your Spurs which comes with a prizeline, added $$ and double points!
UBRC membership info is available on Saddlebook. There is a link on their Facebook page.
For more info on UBRC also take a look at their website.
If your horse is sired by a Diamond Classic stallion, it is eligible for nomination. For a list of Diamond Classic stallions please go to the Diamond Classic website to verify. A link is posted in the comments. More info on how to enroll your offspring of one of these stallions and the nomination fee will be coming soon.
If you aren’t sure what Diamond Classic is all about, in our case it is a $10,000 added sidepot in the Open for the entire weekend for horses that have been paid into Diamond Classic because they are offspring of Diamond Classic stallions. You have 3 chances to win a part of the $10k. You can pay in your sidepot entry fee for one specific day, 2 specific days or all 3 days. The times from the runs you paid a sidepot entry fee for all go into one payoff so you can potentially win 3 checks if you enter all 3 days. That makes it different from other incentive programs.
More info to come later.

About Wendy…
I grew up in Columbia Falls, Montana. After competing in high school rodeo and then college rodeo as an MSU Bobcat, marrying and raising 2 sons who rodeod, I retired from public education in 2016. Having produced barrel racing events since college and being a past State Director of the National Barrel Horse Assn - Montana (aka MBHA), in 2016 Win$um Productions was formed, putting on an average of 30 jackpots each year and also organizing invitational barrel races as part of the rodeo staff for the producers of Under The Big Sky Music Fest, benefit events and events like Horsepower Collides and a favorite for locals Beauties and The Beasts to name a few. While I am off barrel racing, my husband Ernie, also retired after a 42 year career as an inspector/investigator for the MT Dept of Livestock, spends his time building custom horse freeze brand irons and cattle hot iron brands.
