Barrel Racers and Polebenders - remember you must get your horse in the arena within 2 minutes of being called for the event. If you need help getting in the gate, have a plan, get a friend (Must be an Associate Member) or other contestant to help you get thru the gate, don't get turned out.
Goat Tiers- We tie downs the goats at 7:30am before every rodeo. If you would like to tie down the goats, be at the ___________'s trailer by 7:30am. Please contact ___________________ if you have any questions.
Humane Treatment - Be nice to your animals and treat them with respect. Rough or other excessive treatment cannot be used at the rodeo. You may be disqualified for excessive treatment. All training should be done prior to the rodeo and not at the rodeo.
Ground Rule Meeting - Every rodeo has a ground rules meeting to go over urgent information or specific instructions about that rodeo.
Back Numbers - Each contestant will be given a back number at the first rodeo, this is your number for the year. Replacement back numbers will cost you $10. Some contestant's laminate their number for better wear for the year.
Work Crew - Each contestant has a work crew at each rodeo. Failure to work your work crew will result in major consequences. (could have serious results, include loss of points) If you are in a work crew just prior to your event, let both event directors know (the director of your work crew event & the director of the event you are up in) that you will be there as soon as you are done with your work crew or need to leave early for an event.
Grand Entry - Each contestant is expected to ride in the Grand Entry and some will be asked to carry a flag.
