New for 2006
Sign up for helping at each rodeo.
These are some of the specific areas needing help.
Each family will be required to help
during at least one rodeo to be eligible for awards.
Each event director will sign off on
your work card, which must be turned into the secretary for
credit.

The KJRA has purchased a new Computer
Program, which will figure points, figure results, write checks,
and update the web page and much more. So our checks
will be printed each day, results will be posted to the web
page upon completion of the weekend; points will be posted
then also. We are keeping our fees the same but will
add $2 office charge each day to offset some of this cost.
The
KJRA has hired Ronnie McKellups, West Wind Rodeo Co. as our
new Stock Contractor, and we will also reintroduce the rough
stock events, bull riding, and barebackriding for the 14-18
boys age group.
