Rodeo season is approaching fast.
Contestants:
Before
rodeo season gets in to full swing, please remember the rules. You MUST know
your card number and anyone else’s card number you are entering. CASH only
at all approved TCRA rodeos. Some producers may accept checks but please know
their check policy before you try and give a check at one of their rodeos.
Remember you must have purchased a current TCRA card three (3) days prior to
the first performance or slack for your money to count at that rodeo. You can
purchase a card at the rodeo but your money will not start accumulating till
the next weekend.
TURNOUTS:

must notify the TCRA office or the rodeo secretary if you are turning out to
avoid a fine. If you need to draw out prior to the rodeo, you have 24 hours to
draw out after the books close but you must contact the TCRA office to draw
out.
Slack:
Definition
of rodeo slack is an over flow of contestants in a performance. Slack is only
if the performances fill. Contestants please DO NOT call in 10 minutes
after the books open and ask for slack. If you plan on entering the slack,
slack will open 2 hours before the books close at all rodeos. To fill
performances positions will be drawn out of the slack entries. You may call
back or check website to see if you drew performance or slack. Members will have
priority over a non member for slack.
