The Finals are set for October 20^th & 21^st with a mandatory meeting on Friday night October 19^th. The finals dates have been reserved at the Amarillo National Center in Amarillo, Texas. The meeting on Friday will be at the Ashmore Inn & Suites, which will be our host motel for 2007 finals. We will give jackets and some of the year- end awards away as we did at the 2006 meeting. There will be a meal and drinks provided for the Top 15 contestants in each event, Stock Contractors, personnel, and Rodeo Committees. Awards are given to Event Champions, Rookies, Reserve Champions in each event, Horse of the Year awards in the timed events, Stock Contractor, and Committee awards. Jackets will be given to the events that get them sponsored. Jackets will come from Carroll Leather Company as in the past. Once again, jackets are optional for each event so if you would like to have one in your event, get with your event director EARLY and see how you can help with sponsorships. Don’t miss out and plan on making the 2007 FINALS.
