Important notice: Finals and Year End points.
I have had a parent request a review of the year end points from the finals. This is completely within their right being within the 10 day margin of time for questioning. I do not manually calculate points. It is completed by the rodeo program. Since this request was made, I will be looking into the finals, average, and year end points to calculate myself. If there happens to be a correction required I will give notice privately to the contestant and publicly on this page. Thank you all for understanding.

I feel like today was a closing of an era. After 5 years of working in the office I submitted the last rodeo results to the ARTS program. Being the secretary has been one of the most rewarding things I have done. From the time I began working on rodeo 'stuff' I was never Finley's mom. I was everyone's mom. The draw was never rigged and the ruffies never got to pick their bull. I have been asked by more than one contestant, "why am I so and so in the draw?" and I would just shrug my shoulders and say that was the program, not me. I know some of you don't have good things to say about me and that is fine but truthfully, I have treated every contestant with fairness. I have celebrated with the kid that just won their first check and spoke encouragingly to the kid that just checked the results page to see they just didn't make the cut. All of that was a gift to me. Your kids made a mark on my heart. I look forward to seeing everyone at the awards banquet in September. Have a fun summer. Keep traveling down the rodeo trail!
With Love and Prayers,
