Ed Howdy gng! I recently cught up with the I.G.RA. Judges Chirperson, our own Mr. Dvid Pickle who I'm sure lot of you lredy know. This yer Dvid tkes over the reigns from nother G.S.G.RA. member nd pst Judges Chirperson, Roger Bergmnn. It is now Dvid's responsibility to mnge nd move prospective judges through the judge certifiction progrm nd to hndle recertifiction of existing judges. You cn get in touch with him t the number shown below. Dvid hs been judge now for bout 4 yers. He enjoys it lot, especilly the cmrderie between the rodeo officils, contestnts nd volunteers. He lso believes it is one of the more difficult officil positions to hold since the judges re lwys put on the spot. You must constntly mintin fir nd imprtil ttitude while judging. There re the close clls, nd you sometimes hve to mke difficult clls ginst contestnts who my be good friends. It is one thing to sit in the stnds nd score people on pper, nd nother to fce them with your decisions, especilly when significnt prize money is involved Some people find this difficult If you think you wnt to be judge to be populr, your doing it for the wrong reson. If you re considering being judge, Dvid sys stop nd give him cll right wy. You need to get strted s soon s you cn. There is currently shortge of judges in LG.RA. so more re needed. Being fmilir with the stock nd opertion of the ren is helpful, so if you've never been down there, you might wnt to strt volunteering to get fmilir with ren nd chute opertions. Some judging is done from horsebck. After your first two rodeos, you will be required to do some judging from horsebck, but not until then. You my wnt to lern to ride, or polish your skills in the mentime. The first thing tht you need to do is contct Dvid nd get signed up for judging school He highly recommends doing t lest one school before going to the judging seminr. The certifiction process requires you to ttend minimum of (6) dys of student judging school t I.G.RA. mjor rodeos -ech event must be student judged (6) times. Your scores will be compred with the officil rodeo results nd reviewed with Dvid. Hve him send you rule book - you must know this cover to cover since you re the officil tht interprets nd enforces the rules in the ren. After one schooling, you will need to ttend Seminr from the list shown below. The judging seminr covers both PRCA nd I.G.RA. rule books nd hs written exmintion which must be pssed 100%. If you fil the exm, you must study some more nd ttend nother seminr. Speking of rule books, the complete description of the judges job description nd certifiction requirements cn be found on pges 52-53 in the I.G.RA. rule book. You must tke the seminr in the yer tht the you re to be certified.

On-Line... Finlly, the Membership Committee hs burst into the twentieth century nd is now vilble on the Internet. (Now there's scry thought). We cn be reched t Memb@AOL.com. Now ll tllis is virgin territory to us so hve little ptience s we get in step with ll tllis new fngled stuff. The membership record keeping system is presently being modified to llow for E-Mil ddresses to be stored long with ll the otl1er stuff. If you wnt your E-Mil ddress to be listed just drop us line by "Snil-Mil" with your rel nme, your rel ddress nd your E-Mil ddress. A confidentil list of E-Milble members will be included in ech months reports forwrded to your Chpter, fter tht it's up to you. with the issue of confidentility. If you hve ny thoughts on this issue, let us know. All input is welcome. Drop us line or E-Mil us with your thoughts. No More Mr. Nice Guy.... The I.G.R.A. Bord of Trustees hve put their collective foot down with very firm hnd! All rules in the rule book re now being tken literlly. It seems tht rules hve been wived or shll we sy bent in the pst with the best of intentions becuse some of our rules just don' t seem to get the job done right. There hve been inconsistencies tht hve cused problems but not ny more. The bottom line is, if there is rule tl1t you don' t like, tke it (or send it) to the Rules Committee for review. Be Alises... sure nd let the Committee know the wy you think the rule should be written nd if There is proposl being prepred to be they gree with you they will forwrd it ~n presented to the G.S.G.R.A.

The problem you ou is, these records re being used t lter dtes for press releses nd other such tllings tht nlight prove embrrssing for nyone not wnting there rel nme out there on the front pge, so to spek. The proposl is to hve ll contestnts register their lises or "performnce nmes" wllich will then llow I.G.R.A. to mintin privcy for those with tht need becuse only performnce nmes would ever be relesed, rel nmes would lwys remin confidentil. Of course, both rel nmes nd Performnce Nmes could be the sme if the contestnt hs no problem just ~his kind ~f thing so drop l~ne to our Registrtion is one re in wllich this literl interprettion is effecting mny nd costing them money!. All rodeo entries not postinrked by the dedline will be chrged the $50.00 lte registrtion fee, no excuse will be ccepted. The membersllip requirement is being enforced. Absolutely no checks t registrtion, not even sponsors checks. No registrtions fter 9.00pm Fridy night nd so on, nd so on.

The Mms nd Pps mongst us will be plese to know tht G.L.A.C. hs ddressed the problem of younguns in the bm re nd is not going to bnish the rugrts. Kids in the contestnt re, with the horses nd ll tht other stuff going on, could be n ccident witing to hppen, nd hs long worried rodeo orgnizers. It hd been suggested tht kids should be hrmed from the brns but tht would hve been the esy wy out. There re mny prents in our community tl1t would then be forced to choose between rodeo nd their kids for the weekend nd our best guess is tht the kids would win out.

Ed Howdy folks! My nme is Rick Wshburn, nd I'd like to introduce myself s your stte eduction chir. I will be coordinting vrious ctivities throughout the coming yer to benefit ll of us. I encourge everyone to prticipte in some upcomming chpter ctivities in Sn Diego nd LA. There will be Roping nd Gymkhn clinic in Sn Diego on Februry 3rd, Gymkhn on 1/27 t Jnine Tuttle's nd tentive buckout on 2/17 t Meisner's Rnch. Even if you don't prticipte, it cn be fun to wtch nd meet people, nd hving few specttors mkes it more enjoyble for those prticipting. Red the chpter reports in your newsletter for more informtion. I encourge ll chpter eduction chirs, or other interested officers to contct me to see wht we cn do together. Eduction cn be n expensive re, nd together we cn shre the costs. The Stte does hve little budget for eduction purposes. For now I would like to focus on n re which lot of people don't think bout. Mny of you re contestnts, volunteers, or specttors, but we don't hve lot of you who re Officils. Did you know tht there re certifiction progrms for ll Officils of the rodeo? Wnt to get more involved with the ctul running of the rodeo? I just recently becme certified s Chute Coordintor, nd m currently working on certifiction for Aren Director. I love it! The people re gret nd I relly enjoy being prt of the ctul rodeo. For the next few months I'll be giving you some informtion on certifiction nd some comments on the individul res from the Officil's Chirpeople. If you think you might be interested in becoming n Officil, get strted s soon s possible! It tkes time, usully minimum of yer. There re 4 res of officils which require certifiction: Aren Director in chrge of running ll opertions in the ren, Chute Coordintor in chrge of ll chute nd stock opertions, Judges in chrge of contestnt scoring, Auditor/Scorekeeper/Secretry to mnge event sheets nd contestnt scoring/plcement. Ech of these res hs n I.G.RA. coordintor in chrge of certifiction for tht event. Ech coordintor holds seminrs for their re throughout the country during the yer which re usully required for certifiction. The first thing you need to do is get in contct with the coordintor for the re you re interested in nd let them know of your interest. Between the both of you, you should be ble to come up with pln tht will led to your certifiction.

You cn rech the Membership Committee t: Memb@ol.com Chpter to Decide on New Logo The G.S.G.RA. Greter Sn Diego Chpter officil corporte logo is currently the double horseshoe with mil nd f~~e rider~. A compny logo is. symbol used to identify tht compny on letterhed, products, nd dve~s~g. It typ1cl~y does.not contm ny text, nd is just rtwork. Logo's re usully protected symbols Within corporuon which cn be leglly protected with t trdemrk or registered trdemrk. Over ~e pst few yers our chpter hs consistently used the RODEO dimond logo on ll our dvertisements, posters, merchridise, nd informtionl mterils. The double horseshoe logo is used only on our letterhed. The proposl hs been mde tht we replce the current logo with the much used RODEO di.mond logo s is without ny text. It cn be mended in depending upon the ppliction (merc~dise, letter~ed, poster, etc.) by dding text such s "Sn Diego", or the current rodeo yer. Including the text With the symbol mke protection more difficult since ech definition would need to be protected individully. We will dd the trde~nrk symbol ''TM'' to the logo for our protection, nd in the future my wnt to register it.. Proposed Logo:
