Dear Parents,
we are
looking for some great volunteers! Please
let us know if you would be willing to help
in the arena with an event. No experience
necessary!! If you have never worked, don't
let that stop you, there is a first time for
everything and we all had to start at one
time or another. We love helping the kids
and look forward to seeing you help us!
See you at the end of July!
Thanks in advance!

| Dear TYRA Family,
July 2008 As we head into the 2008 Finals I wanted to thank
you all for your support throughout the years as TYRA
President. All I have ever wanted to do was to help the kids
and I hope I have accomplished that along with an awesome Board
of Directors!!.
TYRA Finals are sure to be a great vacation but HOT! After
our meeting on Tuesday we have a LIVE AUCTION and then we start
our rodeo performance at 5:00. If we do not start on time
because of auction, don't panic, we are flexible! On Wednesday
Russell Blandford will offer a roping jackpot starting with the
senior age group at 8:00 a.m., so that they may attend the
Senior Luncheon at the Elks Lodge by noon. Other age groups
will follow. Then on Thursday we will have a GIANT 52'
waterslide and obstacle course down by the pavilion. Please you
all be careful on it and watch the lil' ones! It will be there
from 10-4:00!
Tack Bingo will be going on at the same time so we can watch
the kids and BINGO! all at the same time. So enjoy yourselves!
Friday is our Scholarship Dance with Rudy and Alys! They are
truly an awesome duo and if you have not heard them, you are in
for a treat! Bring your dancin' shoes!
I'll see you next week and from my family to yours, God Bless
and thank you for allowing me to be your President, it was an
awesome ride!
Love,
Sherry Pietsch
TYRA President and Friend |
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
2007 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.
