Letter from the president

                WOW! What year this has been for the NYRCHA. It is hard to believe it is almost over with our final show less than 2 weeks away. The growth we have seen this year has been outstanding. I feel it is a direct reflection on how hard this board of directors and officers has worked to make our 10th anniversary year such a success. All season long I have heard our exhibitors commenting on how organized our shows have been and how much fun they are having. The high point awards for each weekend seemed to have been a big hit along with the high fence and boxing scores. I am thrilled with the great sportsmanship displayed with exhibitors and spectators cheering all our riders. Everyone trying Reined Cow Horse, should be commended for attempting, what I feel, is the most difficult event in the Western discipline. 

Make sure to attend our last show of the season on October 5th and 6th as we high light our youth riders. We will also have high school rodeo class and our green riders chasing the year end saddle. There are several riders who have a shot at this great year end prize! And, don’t forget, the High Point Youth Rider for the Weekend wins a buckle! It promises to be an exciting finale to our 2019 show season! I look forward to seeing everyone in October. 

Joe Decker, President NYRCHA
