TEXAS JUNIOR HIGH & HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATION REGION VI July 2018

Hello Region VI TJHRA & THSRA Members,

Hey! It is rodeo time again! Hard to believe, where did the summer go, we hope everyone had a great summer and ready to start the 2017-18 rodeo season. We are looking forward to a great season, with all the calls we have been receiving it looks like we are going to have a great region.

This year our High School adult directors will be: President David Freeman, Vice President: Matt Crainer, and Region Secretary- Nena Boettcher, State directors - David Freeman, Misty Smith, this year our Junior High adult directors will be: President-David Freemann, Vice President-Matt Crainer, Secretary- Nena Boettcher, State Directors-Tommy Ohrt, Clay Ohrt, and Matt Crainer. We all are so proud of Region VI and the main reason is because of you the members and their parents. WE HAVE the greatest volunteers and believe me we could not pull these region off without each and every one of you. We usually have plenty of help and are always looking for more, especially setting up barrels and poles. It takes no past experience to getting involved in our region; we will train anyone that is willing to help us. Believe me, the more help we have the quicker and smoother our rodeos run.

On the rodeo entry letter, it outlines the rodeos and tells about the rodeos and tells about the first rodeo. If any meeting is important, it will be the one on September 22, 2018. It will begin at 9 a.m. and we will give all the pole benders plenty of time to warm up after the meeting. We will be going over all of the rules of TJHRA & THSRA that we feel need to be addressed and be voting for student officers, student directors and adult event directors. THIS IS A MANDATORY MEETING FOR EVERY CONTESTANT AND PARENT .... PLEASE BE THERE AT 9:00 A.M. We will give the girls plenty of time to warm up before poles.

Within this package, you will find many important papers:

1. Checklist check off - follow this and you will be doing good!!!

2. Membership application: must be filed out completely ... both pages (membership and liability), do not worry about the NHSRA membership number (I will fill that in), on the signatures, this is very impo11ant, if it is wrong, National Office will kick it back. The only case where one parent's signature is acceptable is when the other parent is deceased, or if the parent signing the form, has full custody. Those release forms should be marked "deceased" or "have full custody" on the line where the second parent should sign. Along with a completed membership application, you must include: a copy of your last semester (May/June 2018) report card, a copy of your bi11h certificate, and a copy of your coggins of the horse you are competing on (I need a copy, not just a look at it) I have to send these all to the state office. It must also be notarized; these must be completed before you may ride on September 23... NO EXCEPTIONS.

3. Photo Release - This needs to be signed and notarized.

4. Student Event Director Nomination - "new" - these must be turned in with first entry-see form for instructions.

5. Rodeo Entry Information Letter attached to the top of your first entry blank. All entry blanks for rodeos 3-12 can be found online thsra6.com.

6. Prospective Members Letter from state - very important TEXAS rules, regarding the requirements that must be met, Dodge Raffle Ticket Sales, and the Ad Program Sales.

7. Donation Letter - it is never too early to start trying to get sponsors, it all goes back into your awards and rewards.

Post Mark Date for all Membership Packet is September 4, 2018 (All cutters must have membership packets postmarked by Aug 3, 2018). Save a stamp and mail entry blanks for Rodeo #1 and Rodeo #2 with your membership packets and postdate your check for September 10, 2018. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me.

When you check in at the first rodeo and you have completed your application in full (remember you WILL NOT ride until it is right) you will receive a rule book (if you are a new member), back number, Dodge raffle tickets, Bloomer ticket, ad sales form, and various other important papers from the state office and national office.

One more very important item is dress code. Remember new and old members, every contestant must be in full western attire. This consists of hat, LONG sleeve shirt (tucked-in), blue jeans, belt (may be taken off during your riding event), cowboy boots, and your number on your back (keep up with your number, but if you loose it we will have more for $5). This is a must at all times anytime you are under the covered arena area, even if you are not riding at the time. This is a NHSRA rule, so let's all follow it, we do not have time to keep telling everyone to get in full dress, and you may be disqualified if it is a problem. You never know when we have sponsors drop by, and we want them to know REGION VI IS THE BEST......

Attn: Contestants

We are getting ready to kick off the 2018-2019 year for Region 6! JB Wells would like to thanks you for making us your home another year. We will be doing call-in just like we did last year The phone lines did get on overload so if are not answering give it a minute or two and try again.

This year we will be opening up the office phone lines for the rodeo season reservations on August 15th at 9:00 a.m.

With that said we will NOT be taking ANY reservations until this date and time. Do not leave a message on our answering machine or send us an e-mail to let us know which sites you wish to have. We will only be taking phone calls. Also, we will only allow you to make your own reservations. We are trying to create an equal reservation opportunity for everyone. We will then return your call within a few hours to book your reservations for the year. Keep in mind; we will probably be loaded with calls the first day. Therefore, you may not get a call back right away; give us a day or two.

Finally, it is not mandatory, but we do recommend paying for your reservations in advance. This helps us to have everything unlocked and ready to go for you when you arrive. As in the past we will have someone working until about 9 p.m. on Fridays for your convenience, if you plan to arrive later than that you must have your stalls and hook-ups paid in advance. If you do not have a reservation, do not pull into a hook-up site, as it is more than likely already taken. The same rule applies for stalls, as well. Also make a note of this; we will not be giving any refunds and not rolling anything over from rodeo to rodeo.

2018-2019 Dates are as follows: September 22-23 October 27-28 November 10-11 January 12-13 February 9-10 March 9-10

We can’t wait to get this next season rolling! If you have any questions regarding this information, please give us a call (830) 672-6558.

Thanks

TJHRA PHONE LINE – 979-412-2551 WEBSITE: www.tjhra.net

Everyone will need to fill out the following “Contestant Approval Form” and submit it with or prior to our first entry form.

You will no longer have to get “EACH” entry form signed by the principle or notarized; however, you MUST take this form to your school and have it signed by your superintendent or principle. You will also need to take this form to have it notarized. This form will stand good for your seasons entry forms as long as this form is on file with the secretary. Entry forms will not be accepted without it on file. You, your parents or guardians will also have to sign before submitting to secretary.

PARENTS: You will need to check the “X” box for all events that you are allowing your contestant to compete in as well as initial and date this box. If contestant enters an event that has NOT been checked by parent approval the computer WILL NOT accept the entry. Therefore, if you are considering entering other events at a later date (such as cutting) then you need to check and approve those events as well.

We are hoping that this will be an easier system for you on entering our rodeos. It will take the hazzle out of taking your entry forms to school every time and trying to find a notary for each entry form.

This system should resolve any problems or issues on entering rodeos on time. Each entry form will still have separate due dates as before as of the postmark date.

If you have any questions give me a call or email.

Name of Contestant REGION 6 JUNIOR HIGH 2018-19 STUDENT EVENT DIRECTOR NOMINATION FORM

We are going to try something different this year on the Student Event Director Nominations and Voting. First we need to explain that this is a very important position and requires someone that knows and understands the rules of the event. According to the rule book we must have one student and adult event director during each event that is ran. Therefore, you must compete in that event in order to be nominated or nominate yourself. When you compete you will have someone fill in your position and then as soon as you are through you will take your position. You will be responsible for getting the clipboard from the previous event director before the event starts. You will watch every run and be ready for any protest or question a contestant has from their run and the judge’s decision. You will also write down the times of each run – at the end of the event you will ask the Judge for their sheets and you will immediately bring your sheets and the judges sheets to the announcer stand so all the times can be verified before posting.

I know that being a student director can be a real pain – but it is an honor to be even be nominated from your peers because that is saying that they look up to you for understanding the rules in that event. If you have always wanted to be an event director and never nominated here is your chance – please either nominate yourself or someone for the events that you will be participating in. I will contact those that will be placed on the ballot to make sure they are willing to do the job. Then when you check into the first rodeo (everyone has to check in to get your number) you will vote on a ballot and they will be counted during the general meeting and announced at the end of the meeting. PLEASE NOMINATE SOMEONE OR YOURSELF IN THE EVENTS THAT YOU PARTICIPATE IN:

The first rodeo on September 22, 2018 will begin with a very important mandatory contestant and parent meeting. Everyone entered and, in the rodeo, must attend the meeting.
