In the fall, Kessa Fitzl of Loyal will start the seventh grade. By the time she gets there, she'll have crossed off a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity off of her bucket list. In July, Kessa’s family and her horse, Flirt, are heading to Perry, Georgia for the National Barrel Horse Association Youth & Teen World Championships. There are others representing Wisconsin, but Kessa and her mom Kaila take some time with Mid-West Farm Report to share their excitement for the competition. Coach Kati Haas of Hazel's Haven Ranch in Thorp gives us an idea of what it’s like to prepare for this event. Kessa says she fell in love with competing when she started taking lessons from a friend -- when mom and dad told her they would not buy her a horse at age 8, she started working to earn money to buy one herself.
