This rodeo began in 2003 as a dream of my husband, Steve Sutton. He wanted to showcase the great talent we have in the SD High School Rodeo ranks during our Black Hills Stock Show Rodeo in Rapid City, SD. He wanted to see the SDHSR athletes compete in the same arena as the PRCA World Champions and SD Rodeo Heroes. This letter will serve as your rodeo pass at the NW entrance door of the Civic Center, where you check-in. Check-in begins at 10:30 am and ends at 12:00 pm. A team picture will be taken at 12:30 pm. Trailer parking is in the NW parking lot of the Civic Center. There is a $20 entry fee per contestant which is due with the entry form. Event winners will receive a Ralph Maynard Trophy Buckle. Wrangler has sponsored shirts in the past and I anticipate this sponsorship for 2012, but make sure you bring a long sleeved shirt for competition if needed. Tickets for family and friends can be purchased that day or in advance by calling the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center at 1-800-GOT-MINE. It is set as a General Admission Family Day performance, which means you can get 5 tickets for $43.00; Rows 1-12 in the balcony are reserved tickets at $16.00. VIP section tickets are $29.00. If you need a helper in your event, you can pick up a helper’s pass at check-in. The helper will have to purchase a general admission ticket to the rodeo. Please fill out the biography sheet and mail it with your entry form and $20 entry fee. It’s important for the rodeo announcer to have facts to discuss while you compete. (Or we’ll be forced to make things up about you! Just kidding!) The seniors will find a scholarship application enclosed that must be filled out and returned with your entry form and bio sheet. We are anticipating four $500 scholarships to be awarded. The winners will be drawn from the complete group of seniors. If you are a senior and didn’t receive a form in this letter, call me. Plans are being made for a college fair to be held from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the arena. Finally, make sure you contact Sutton Rodeo immediately if you are not going to enter or can’t compete after you have entered so we can contact the alternates and give them the opportunity to prepare for competition. If I have not received your entry by the deadline you will have to provide me with a copy of the original notarized entry form and “proof of mailing” or you will be withdrawn from the rodeo. Office (605) 258-2863 8:30 am to 1:00 pm; Steve home (605) 258-2596; Steve cell (605) 381-0270 or Kim cell (605) 381-0280. Good luck to each of you as you compete in this unique rodeo. I hope you will have a great time and take home many good memories! Sincerely, Kim Sutton FCSA CHALLENGE ISSUED TO HIGH SCHOOL RODEO An exciting challenge has been issued by Farm Credit Services of America to the 20X Extreme High School Rodeo Team. When the team members compete at the Black Hills Stock Show & Rodeo in Rapid City, SD on Jan. 29, they will be competing for much more than the first place buckle. If they can meet or exceed the set challenge scores they can win, for their National Team, $100 per the 10 scheduled events for a total of $1000. This money will be donated by Farm Credit Services of America to the South Dakota High School Rodeo Association to be used by the National Team members for travel expenses at the 2012 National High School Rodeo Finals. After reviewing the records from the past four years of 20X Extreme Rodeo performances, the time or marking that has been set would have been reached in each event 50% of the time. Here are the markings that would need to be met or exceeded for the SDHSRA to obtain the funds. FCSA challenge score requirement: Bareback Riding 72 2012 Contestants Updated 1/13/2012 Bareback SW Shane O’Connell SW Chance Englebert Saddle Bronc Bull Riding Steer Wrestling Calf Roping Team Roping Breakaway Roping Goat Tying Barrel Racing Pole Bending 20X EXTREME RODEO SHOWCASE Purpose: To showcase South Dakota High School rodeo talent. Selection Criteria: 1. To be invited to compete, you must be in the top three places on points at the end of the 2011 SDHSR season in your competed region. This is based on the year end point total from regions and state. 2. Three students will be invited from each region in each event. 3. Incoming freshmen are not eligible, nor is a student who did not earn any points in the 2011 SDHS rodeo season. 4. Students must be a current member of SDHSRA for the 2012 season. If you have been invited, but have not paid your membership dues, you will be drawn out of the rodeo. 5. Students will be invited to compete in one event only. 6. If a student places in the top 3 in more than one event, invitation will be in the event the student has the most points in. 7. Team Roping - Top 3 teams in each region will be invited. If any team is missing a partner, it will be filled by rolling down to the next highest point header or heeler. The roper invited will be determined by the need of the above roper, who is in the top 3 positions. For example: The top team in the region is missing a header. The 2nd and 3rd teams are complete. The 4th place header will be invited to rope with the 1st place heeler. If he/she declines, the next highest point header will be invited. 8. Tie-Breakers - If there is a tie at the 3rd place position in an event it will be broken:
A) 1st - The highest
number of times a student earned points in that event. B) 2nd - The highest number of times placed at regions. (4 perf) C) 3rd - The highest number of times placed at state. (3 perf) D) 4th - The highest placing in that event. E) 5th - Flip of a coin. |
