SEPTEMBER 16, 2011
**IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL**
Tomorrow night's (9/17/11) AzNJRA Jr. Rodeo is cancelled due to unsafe arena conditions.  Page, Arizona recieved a considerable amount of rain the last few days and has created wet and muddy conditions at the arena.  After discussion with Kim Joslin about the conditions, she feels the arena will not dry in time for tomorrow night's event.  On behalf of the AzNJRA Board, it is in the best interest to call off tomorrow night's event.  We all know the sport of rodeo is a rough sport, however we also have to look out for the safety of our contestants.  Our next event is scheduled for September 24, 2011 at 6 pm (DST) at Vermillion Saddle Club.

There also was a question about tonights rodeo at Shonto.  That was cancelled two weeks ago.  I hope everyone got the lastest schedule that posted on our website.

Be safe and we will see you all next Saturday in Page.

First of all, read the AzNJRA NEWS for important revised schedule informaton and other ANNOUNCEMENTS.  Now, about our 'GITTER DUNN" Membership Drive Rodeo, I'd like to say GREAT JOB to all the participants who showed up.  What a tough group of young cowboys and cowgirls competing in the 80 degree weather we had (40 in the morning and 40 in the afternoon).  I have to say the turnout was fantastic.  We would also like to thank the parents and grandparents for toughing it out in the extreme weather.  THANK YOU PARENTS/GRANDPARENT.  Thanks also goes out to the judges Frank and O.J. Timer Debi, Announcer Freddy Hunt (for taking over last minute due to our announcer cancelling), Marlon Manson and the Manson Family, the Board Members, the helpers, and a huge THANKS to Ray and Lita Tracy, Kim Joslin/Vermillion Saddle Club, Securities Unlimited and last but not least the current 2010 IIFR Rode Queen Hannah Rae Yazzie.  What true character she had by taking time out to participate in our association even with her busy schedule.  We are looking forward to our second event on April 23, 2011.  The posting of RESULTS are currently being worked on and will be posted shortly.  Also, we are considering being on FACEBOOK.  More details will follow.

Parents who are new to the association:
Some questions have arisen over kids competing in divisions that they do not qualify for based on age. If your child is in midget and wants to do pole bending, you have two options: 1) time only pole bending, no points, no payback $3 entry for members, or; 2) your child can move into the peewee division in that event only and compete for event points (peewee points) towards a year end award. You must pay the $10 entry fee.
The rules state that if an event is not offered in the child's division they may move up to the next division for that event only and earn points in that event (not to be counted towards their "home" division all around).

The rules also state that we allow a child to move completely out of their division if they find they want to compete in an older division, e.g. peewee contestant who wants
to compete as a junior may move to the junior division but must stay there all years. No moving back. 
We believe in allowing the child to compete to their fullest potential.
Please read the rules.
