Q. How do I join?
A. I prefer to mail out membership
applications so I know you are getting the correct information, however,
they are available to download here if you are
confident in your ability to follow instructions. You can always
call the office if you have any questions.
Q. I wasn't at the last
rodeo and I don't have any entry envelopes. How can I enter the
next rodeo?
A. You can enter with these forms:
Tri-State Boys,
Tri-State Girls,
Region 1 High
School, Region 1
Wrangler Division. These are just copies of your regular entry
envelopes. Print them off, fill them out and mail them with your
entry fees in a regular envelope. Make sure you send them in
before the entry deadline. You can always pick up extra entry
envelopes at any of the rodeos.
Q. Where is the arena?
A. Follow this
link to find directions to each
arena. It is incomplete for now, but I will add to it throughout
the year until all of the arenas are listed.
Q. Are there any stalls
available?
A. Here is a list of the
horse accommodations that I know of in each
town. I will add to it as more information becomes available.
Q. Are there any motels?
A. Here is a list
of motels and phone numbers I collected off of an internet search.
Q. Can I write one check
for everything?
A. Yes and no. You must keep
Tri-State and Region 1 money separate. However, if we have two
rodeos in one weekend I will allow you to use one check for both rodeos
as long as one check is for Tri-State fees and one check is for Region 1
fees.
Q. Do I have to join both
Tri-State and Region 1?
A. No. It is your choice to join
Tri-State, Region 1 or both associations.
Here is a letter
comparing both associations that may help you with your decision.
I have had a few questions
regarding the membership applications, so for those of you who may have
the same questions, I will list the answers here and will add to it as
more questions come up.
TRANSCRIPTS
- If you are joining both Tri-State and Region 1, you only need to
send one transcript. It is okay if you send one for each
membership, but you will be alright with only one.
EFFECTIVE DATES
- I will fill in the effective date on the back of the NHSRA
application. This is the date that I receive your membership
in my office. This is the only blank you are allowed to "leave
blank."
NAMES
- If you go by your middle name instead of your first name, please
make sure you mark that somehow on your application so I enter it in
the computer correctly.
OUT OF STATE TRANSFERS
- For those of you who do not have Texas addresses and wish to
compete in Region 1 (high school and junior high), you will need to
get a transfer approved along with your membership. You only
have to do this your first year of membership. Wrangler
members who have been approved should still be good for the high
school division. If I find out otherwise, I will let you all
know ASAP.
STATE/PROVINCE QUESTIONS
- The state you attend school in should be the same state as your
address. (There are a few members that live near state lines
and cross over them to go to school.) You are applying for
membership in the state of Texas and the Region/District is "1".
