Finals Entries due at Third Benefit!

At the July 10th & 11th Benefit Rodeo, upon completion of each event, I will enter those times and calculate the total points for the year. So within 20 minutes of completion of each event, those results will be posted on the wall just like at all the other benefit rodeos. Therefore, contestants will know if they made the top 25 and will turn in their entry blanks that day for the finals. If you are entered at the third benefit on Friday and are not sure if you will make it in the top 25, you will have to give me your finals entry on Friday and if you end up not making it, I will return it to you.  If you are not entering the third benefit, you need to mail your finals entry early enough so I have it by Thursday, July 9th.  That is the last day I will be in my office before the third benefit rodeo.  I have to have the entries that weekend in order to know if someone who makes the top 25 is not going to enter, so I can move someone up in their place and get the names to the printer for the finals program. Also names for T-shirts have to be given to Cattilac Style. There is so much that has to be done with those entries that I simply cannot have a later due date. There are only 16 days between the last benefit rodeo and the first day of the finals rodeo! WOW! Not only does that put a rush on me, but on the printers too! They are being very sweet about the rush! They understand and have agreed to wait for the information and deal with the RUSH.

Late entries will not be accepted for the Finals Rodeo! I apologize, but time simply does not allow for any late entries!

 
If you have any questions about due dates please call me at 361-212-TYRA.
Thanks,
Trish

Dear TYRA Family, wow, just finished the second benefit; it is so hard to believe!  I know you are all busy with rodeo, baseball, track, prom, youth fairs, graduation and the list goes on! So, with that said, thank YOU all for joining TYRA and having one more thing to do!  What great families we have in our association.  The best thing is that you are with your kids and they are with you!

Thanks to all of you that helped with timekeeping, tractor driving, help in the office, arena, announcing, opening gates, etc, we appreciate YOU!  Please if anyone else would like to volunteer at any time, we would appreciate the help.

The TYRA Crisis Fund t-shirts were a big hit and we are still taking orders if you did not get one.  All the proceeds from the shirts will be put to good use one day by helping our families when a crisis arises. 

Your $200.00 sponsorship was due this past weekend.  If you did not get yours in, you may not be able to participate this next weekend.  So PLEASE get in contact with our Corp. Secretary to see if your name is on the list. 

One thing I would like to touch on is sportsmanship.  Please refer to page 7 under Contestant Rules in your rule book, especially # 5.  We do not want anyone to be disqualified but we do want to uphold the standards that our TYRA forefathers have set.  TYRA has been around for many, many years and we definitely want to make everyone proud of what we have.  We also have little ones as young as four that rodeo and we want to set Christian standards and conduct ourselves in that manner.  They look up to the older contestants and we need to show sportsmanship in all that we do.  Parents, this goes for us all too.

Please try not to make rodeo changes at the end of the week. This is hard for our bookkeeping when the programs are ran and then there is a change.  We have been accommodating but we will not be able to continue because it can become a nightmare trying to change, change, change.  Thank you in advance for helping with this matter.  We do realize that everyone makes mistakes and we are all human. 

Thanks to the TYRA Board of Directors.  You work hard and we appreciate all that you do.  Our membership has grown and it’s because of your hard work and eagerness to help the kids.  Please feel free to contact any of us if a need arises.  God Bless!

The Texas Youth Rodeo Association (TYRA) is a family oriented organization that strives to produce youth rodeos that support and promote the sport of youth rodeo throughout Texas.  The 2008 TYRA State Finals Rodeo was a huge success with over $100,000 in prizes presented to the top contestants. $10,000 in added money was distributed in the pay-off!!  Also, 12 scholarships went to graduating seniors.  Contestants qualified for the Finals rodeo by accumulating points in each of the 24 sanctioned rodeos held throughout the state of Texas.  The distinguished top 25 in each event and age group compete at this prestigious event.

 

Cactus saddles were presented to the Year End Champions in each event and to the All Around Champions for the year and for the Finals Rodeo as well.   Cactus Saddles were also given to the Champions of each individual event at the State Finals.   Bob Berg buckles were given to 2nd thru 6th place year-end finishers in each event and age group.  
 

The TYRA Directors for the 2008 season are: President, Sherry Pietsch; Vice President, Tootie Ilse; Secretary, Tammy Zboril; Board members,  Russ Herndon, Randy Watt, James Kmiec, Randy Halbert, Bryan Allison, Bruce Harvey, John Atkinson and Donny Lawrence.

The TYRA Board would like to thank all the Parents and sponsors for their help and support throughout the years!!!!  Without you, TYRA’s success would not be possible.   Thanks….

Any and all donations for the TYRA organization from clubs, individuals or organizations would be greatly welcomed and appreciated.  We are a non-profit organization and all donations are tax deductible.  Anyone wishing to make a donation to TYRA please contact Trish Nyegaard, Corporate secretary at 361-212-TYRA (8972).
