As your 2013 Executive Secretary, I want to personally extend my welcome to each of the returning members and to those new members who join a great family tradition of excellence … the High Plains Junior Rodeo Association! For those of you not familiar with the Association or my convictions, it is important to review the 2013 HPJRA Rule Book and Guidelines. I’m steadfast and principled on the rules of the Association and do believe that this will work in the favor of Association growth in the days ahead.

Wayne Smith Executive Secretary The Cover The HPJRA ran a membership campaign for any member who joined the Association prior to January 1, 2013 to be entered into a drawing for a $100 Gift Certificate to Coolhorse.

As well contestants will compete in two (2) full go-rounds of competition, plus a Top 5 Short Go-Round. The Top 5 is determined by the average times/scores from the finals rodeo competition. HOW IS THE ENTRY FEE MONEY DIVIDED AT THE FINALS? The total of entry fee money, less stock/run charge, is divided equally at 1/3rd to the 1st go-round, 1/3rd to the 2nd go-round and 1/3rd to the average. The Short Go-Round is all Added Money!
