Latest Chapter News

Tuesday, May 9, 2006

We're hoping that many of you are able to attend tonight's chapter meeting at Marlena's. As you may be aware, we've been seeing a growth in membership over the past several months. This is great news for the health of the chapter, but it also means we always need a few more people to ensure quorum at our chapter meetings. If you've never attended a chapter meeting or haven't attended one in awhile, it would be great to see you tonight.

Now, here's the latest Bay Area Chapter news...

Metro Beer Bust - Postponed

The Beer Bust scheduled for the Metro City Bar this Thursday has been postponed until June. You're of course welcome to swing by the Metro for some fun after work, you just won't see the crew there with the planned Bud Light and Midori specials. Stay tuned for complete details on the rescheduled event.

Rough Stock Rodeo School - May 13th

Enrollment in this weekend's Rough Stock Rodeo School is now closed. We've got a great group of individuals lined up for a full day of Chute Dogging, Steer Riding, and Bull Riding. Based on the very positive response, it's clear that we'll need to do this again. If you've already registered, print off a copy of the info packet so you have all the details on where to be and what to bring: http://www.bayarearodeo.com/Events/rodeoschool.html

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
