Travis grew up in central Nebraska as a cattle rancher’s kid with horses and going to rodeos. At the point of graduation from high school, Travis decided to join the Air Force with the intent to use those benefits to put him through college. Plans quickly changed and he realized he really enjoyed seeing the world and the military. Beck was lucky enough to have been provided opportunities throughout his career to play in the rodeo arena and participate in some roping.
In 2015, Charly Crawford held an amazing event and Beck, along with his wife Jessica, attended the breakaway roping. Beck was deployed that year and “quietly sulked” said Beck, as his rodeo friends went and spent the weekend getting tuned up and interacting with rodeo super stars. A few years later, Beck was able to start attending the annual events.
“The comfort level while learning from Charly and Trey Johnson Ministries is unreal. They treat you like family and break roping steps down for each person to a comprehensive level of understanding.” said Travis Beck. “Having the privilege to be an ambassador of such a great event that gives so much back to military and now first responders is simply humbling. Our key focus is helping anyone we can through our passion of roping and love that we all share in addition to our military brotherhood.”
