Latest Chapter News

Wednesday, April 26, 2006

Congratulations are in order to your new Miss Bay Area Rodeo 2006--Gloria Whole. We're proud to have Gloria helping to represent our chapter and the sport of gay rodeo in the community. We know she'll do a great job throughout the year.

Both the pre-party last Friday and the pageant itself on Saturday were highly successful events. It was especially great to see so many of the past royalty teams and other chapter members there.

Here's the latest news...

Rough Stock Rodeo School - May 13th

Interested in learning how to ride a bull, bronc, or steer? Have you always wanted to learn how to chute dog? Or maybe you just want to know how to better assist those who compete in these events? If so, we've got great news for you. On Saturday, May 13th the chapter is hosting a full day Rough Stock Rodeo School in Morgan Hill, CA. With a combination of ground training and plenty of attempts on great livestock, you'll learn all you need to learn whether your looking to compete for the first time or just want to dramatically improve your competitive skills. Enrollment in this school is limited. Contact our VP of Rodeo right away if you're interested: vprodeo@bayarearodeo.com

Parking Lot Rodeo & BBQ - May 28th

Join the fun on Sunday of Memorial Day Weekend, May 28th, when the Bay Area Chapter brings our "Parking Lot Rodeo" to Sundance Saloon. Take a turn on Broncy--our bucking machine. Learn to rope a calf. Give a run at some "human goat dressing." And more. We'll also be serving up some great grub. It's all followed by a great night of dancing. Sundance Saloon, 550 Barneveld, San Francisco.

Thursdays @ Sundance Saloon - Beginning June 1st

Attendance at Sundance Saloon on Sunday nights has been skyrocketing and it became clear to the wonderful team there that it was time to find a second night for country-western dancing in the city. Through the tremendous efforts of their committed volunteers, they are are proud to announce that Sundance Saloon will now happen every Thursday as well as every Sunday beginning on June 1st. Join them on the 1st at 6:30 pm for a very special grand opening reception. 550 Barneveld, San Francisco.

Bay Area Chapter Heads North! - Calgary Rodeo
June 30th through July 2nd

The Bay Area Chapter invites you to make your travel plans, reserve your RV, send in your contestant entry forms, and join everyone for a very special trip to Alberta for the Calgary Gay Rodeo. With the many hundreds of people camping in tents and RVs right at the rodeo grounds, and with the many hundreds more locals that come in from town by bus for the parties, this is always one of the most unique and enjoyable rodeos on the IGRA circuit. And, as a further incentive, the chapter has set aside a "sponsorship fund" to help offset the travel costs and/or contestant entry fees for all Bay Area Chapter members who go. Please contact Brad Bruner, VP of Rodeo, for complete details at vprodeo@bayarearodeo.com
