Notes From The President

Fall is in the air.

It has been a wonderful year and I appreciate all those who’ve worked so hard to help with anything and everything that we’ve encountered as a barrel racing organization.

I encourage folks to consider a board or officer position with this club. The last two years have been very challenging as well as rewarding. I can’t pick out any one thing to say that has been the most rewarding. I have learned an enormous amount about putting on barrel races and I’m sure I have more to learn; I have made enduring friendships that I will cherish always. Lastly I hope that my tenure with this association has helped it grow in some way. The longevity of the Tri-City Barrel Racing Association and its impact on so many of our members is just one good reason to take a chance and accept a nomination for the Board of Directors!

If you have questions on what each position requires please don’t hesitate to stop me and ask. I’d be happy to give you the run down!
See you at the races! President, Renee Johnson

September Events

Real Life Photography- Has opted to work with TCBRA this year. You may have noticed their presence at our July 2 & 30th (Men's) race and August 13th. They will be set up with photos for your viewing and purchase at the 9/21 Fundraiser race so wear your smiles and best game faces! Some of the procedes from purchases will go to the TCBRA awards fund. TCBRA will also have some of the professional photos for "Thank You's" and Sponsor solicitations so please enjoy this new opportunity for TCBRA. We are excited to work with such pleasant people and have something unique to offer the members of TCBRA!

Specialty Award Nominations-Get your nominations together for Horse of the Year, Most Improved Horse, Most Improved Rider, Hard Luck Award and Outstanding Service Award. Nominations will be collected at the next races with reasons behind each. Voting will occur once nominations are published AT THE LAST RACE OF THE SEASON .

2009 Board of Directors Nominations-Also will be taken at the races; President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and Board of Director (6 positions total). Voting will occur at the awards banquet.

2009 Rule Proposals-Start writing these up while they are fresh in your mind. The best proposals come from experiences learned. Rule proposals will be published later in the year and voting will occur at the spring meeting in 2009.

Silent Auction: We will again have a silent auction during the banquet. We are actively seeking items for this. Last years auction was a huge success thanks to the efforts of both Mindy Poland and Tiffany Mullen. If you have any items that you’d like to put towards the Auction fundraiser, let any one of the directors know!

Raking Update:

Thanks to Shalimar Frakes and the generosity of a local company, EFC Equipment, operated by Buck Bond.

All 3 September races will be raked using a tractor and groomer donated by EFC. Not only are they going to teach TCBRA members how to run the equipment they are going to haul and get us going each race. This is a huge donation by this company so please take a minute to stop and visit this company for any of your tractor needs, thank Buck and his staff and let them know how much TCBRA appreciates their support!
