The ladies of the True Women Drill Team are excited to be performing for the
2024 Guadalupe County Fair and PRCA Rodeo. Formed in 2002 and named
for Seguin native Janice Woods Windle's novel, True Women, this team is proud
to honor the traditions of the pioneer women who settled Guadalupe and
surrounding counties. Team members work to emulate the courage, perseverance,
and determination of their fore-mothers as they ride to celebrate the successes in
overcoming the hardships of pioneer life. With their stunning performances
throughout South Central Texas, they showcase synchronized horsemanship
and unwavering camaraderie. In addition to performing at various rodeos,
equestrian events, and parades, the True Women volunteer their time and horses
for service projects such as the Chris Krossing Foundation Survivor's Day for Gold
Star Families and educational programs for youth organizations. The ladies love
sharing their knowledge and love of horses!
The 2024 drill team sponsors are:
Chuck Hughes Memorial Arena, Quarter Moon Plumbing, Say Whoa J Bar C Horse Products,
Flack Realty Group, Mac Haik Ford -Victoria, Superior Mane & Hoof, EXP Realty-Jana Evola,
Happened by Chance Horses, San Marcos Iron Doors, Legacy Broker Group, Longhorn S Livestock
Feed Company, Books by Randy Rawls, Purple Goat Ranch, Busy Li'l Bri Professional Organizing LLC,
Competition Wheels, and Gruene Leaf Health & Wellness.
In addition to these much-appreciated sponsors, the True Women are supported by a hard-working
ground crew made up primarily of team members' significant others. The team could not accomplish
all they do without their sponsors and ground crew. The True Women will open the PRCA rodeo each night
with a flag presentation to honor our country and perform their high-speed precision drill for your
entertainment during the rodeo. The True Women Drill Team is a testament to the enduring legacy of
South Texas women and a source of pride for their hometown of Seguin and beyond, by displaying
courage, teamwork, determination, and perseverance in everything they do. These ladies would love
to perform for your event or conduct an educational program for your group. For more information,
