Hello everyone! Wow I can't believe that this High School Rodeo season is over. It went by really fast but I hope everyone had a great year and Jr. Rodeos are already here.

But back to high school rodeo; it was a great year with all the wonderful people from high school rodeo. I want to thank Scott Brown for being are wonderful President and announcer -- you did a great job. Chuck Bowling for being the Vice President, Chris Mitch for being our interim District 2 rodeo secretary and Stephanie Wheeler for also being secretary too, Karen Jones for being Treasurer and calling our names at the gate -- that really helped! Valerie Williams for being membership secretary, John Jackson for being the arena director, all of you adults -- we couldn't do it with out you! We really appreciate all the time that you put into District 2. I also want to thank all the student officers Morgan McWhorter, Janelle McCormack, Kenzie Williams, Jessica Jackson, and Kayla Delbar for being our District 2 Queen. You all did such a great job and I hope you guys had a fun and exiting year.

There are also student event directors that have to do a lot too. I would like to thank them, they kept the show going in the event that they directed. There is also the adult event directs that did an awesome job helping the kids with the event. I would also like to thank all the adult volunteers it takes a lot of people to put on one rodeo and we wouldn't be able to do it with out you even thought you are not an officer you guys did a lot from working in the snack shack to putting up poles and barrels and raking the course. Thank you to all the people who ran the snack shack. I would also like to thank my parents Eric and Shani Smith for making sure I got to all my rodeos and supporting me and helping me throughout everything. I would also like to thank my grandma and grandpa for sponsoring me and for all their support. Thank you to everyone that supported me and sponsored me like Rainbow Ag and all of my other sponsors Stan Brown, Tina Wilson, Bob's Automotive, Gram Polsley, Uncle Polsley, Performance Coating, Inc., Thanks to all of you for you for your help or sponsoring and support. You all are wonderful people!

Our first rodeo will be in Willits on September 24, 25, and 26. Hope to see new members and everyone one else.

I am also the Round Valley Community Rodeo Queen and going to be giving up my crown this year. If there is anyone interested in running you can email me at shaylenesmith@gmail.com and I can give you more information on where to get tickets. It is a great experience and a lot of fun.

May 2010 News from Shaylene

I just got back from the rodeo in Ferndale, California April 9th, 10th, and 11th and it was a pretty good weekend. The FFA dinner was the best. Wow, the end of the year and a new Queen for District 2. Our new Queen is Hayley Carrier. Congratulations to her. My last rodeo is in Covelo California on April 30, May 1 and 2.

I want to thank everyone that has helped me throughout my High School Rodeo sophomore year. Thanks to all my Sponsors too. RAINBOW, you guys are great! High School Rodeo is such a great experience and I love doing it. There are so many great people out there that love to help and I hope that there are a lot more people next year.

News From Shaylene - April 2010

Hey everyone, it's Shaylene Smith with High School Rodeo. I just had my last rodeo in Red Bluff February 26, 27, and 28. It was a blast - I was able to meet District One members and I think some of District 3 and 5 were there too. There was also the Special Rodeo which is what I wrote my High School Rodeo Queen contestant speech on. Special rodeo is such a great opportunity and so much fun to be able to see disabled kids have so much fun.  I helped with the pole bending and they loved weaving and running through the poles. But it couldn't have been better. My next rodeo is April 9, 10, and 11. I can't wait; it is going to be in Ferndale. For anyone that is going up there the Ferndale FFA is going to be having a Tri-Tip dinner. It's only $10 a plate and I heard you get a lot on it. There is also going to be a Barrel race Friday. If you need any info about those events you can go onto the CHSRA District 2 http://www.chsradist2.com/ web site. There were many people from District 2 that went to Challenge. Congratulations to everyone that went and especially to Kenzie Williams for doing good in your events and for getting all-around cowgirl. Well, hope everyone has a great Easter. I hope it doesn't rain. I also hope to see everyone at the next rodeo! If you have any questions you can email me at shaylenesmith@gmail.com

News From Shaylene, February 2010

Hi my name is Shaylene Smith and I am in High School Rodeo. I want to thank Rainbow Ag for sponsoring me in High School Rodeo for my 2010 sophomore year. On January 29, 30 & 31, I participated in the High School Rodeo in Santa Rosa CA. The weather was ok on Saturday but really cold on Sunday. I didn't do as well as I wanted but it was still fun. I talked to people Ii don't usually talk to and that was nice. Everyone in High School Rodeo are very supportive and always willing to help. I really enjoy being in High School Rodeo. My next rodeo is in Ferndale CA on February  12, 13 &14. I hope everyone can make it. I'll send a report soon!
