Rodeo News:
We have quite a few new members joining the IRA. Welcome aboard.
Congratulations to Taylor Holliday and Dusty Goes. They were each awarded a free membership for being the IHSRA Prom Queen and King.
Through the years, we have all had some different names for oue Secretary, Shari Thurman. She now has a new one, "Grandma". Congratulations Shari!!
Last year at our Finals, we were able to enjoy an increase in added money. For this to continue, we must acquire some sponsorships. If everyone steps up and helps out, no one will have to complain in October that the added money is down. Please call if you have any leads.
We have seveal good events coming up. Check the entry dates and Good Luck to you all.
