Again, if you need to make arrangements for your overnights before our events; contact Helen at 849-3232.  Cost is $20.00 per stall/horse; you have to provide water/feed buckets; your own watering and feeding.  Arrangements can also be made for overnights; cost is $20.00 per hook up/no generators.  We start at 9:00 AM.

The snack bar hosted by High Sierra Riders and their members are awesome!  Everyone is so nice and easy to talk with; many compliments!!!  Their sales have been very good and let’s continue in supporting them for the rest of the season!!!  There is a spectator's section on the south side or your left, facing the main arena, to get out of the hot sun or wind.  NO horses are allowed in this area or under the bathroom section, as this is another spot for seating as well as the snack bar section.  I need everyone to make sure they keep their horses out of the center of the covered area (bathrooms) as this is not for the horses.. Spectators or family/friends will need to provide their own chairs to utilize these feature of the Arena.

Please visit the
WNHA Library where you will find the By-Laws, Rules & Awards Program; the WNHA Documents Library is where you will find the Class Entry Sheets, Class List and Waivers.  Remember, NO Dogs will be allowed while we event at the Rockin' LJ Arena; WE participants are guests during a WNHA event.  Please leave them at home where they are so much more comfortable.  The parking is in the front of the arena, on the other side of Helen's place and we don't want them hot, out of water or given the opportunity to bark and scare a horse or bite another participant.  This is also per our insurance for the WNHA...Thank you for understanding...

As always, we will be running as describe on the class list; starting our first class at 9:00 AM; Western will not start before 12 Noon; Gymkhana will not start before 3:00 PM; Trail will start after a 20 minute lunch break to feed our judge.

Don’t forget to get your entries in to Taylor at taylorlangus@yahoo.com! Remember, all you have to do is send her your info, classes, etc., and she will do the rest!  Please PRE-REGISTER as it really helps us out in order for us to start on time!!!  WE must be done with our final run no later than 8:15 PM; so, we ask that you get your entries in to
Taylor to help expedite the morning of the event, allowing us to keep on time; remember, it is SO much easier to scratch, so, even if you think you may come or may ride in a class, better to have it pre-entered.  Lights used at the arena is an additional cost of $100.00 and we will continue to accept donations for the rest of the season as we will use the lights per requests from our participants.  THANK YOU TO THOSE OF YOU WHO HELPED US RAISE MONIES NEEDED!!!

PLEASE help us in saving the club additional fees so we can have that extra cash for the awards and that we may get out of there at a decent time as well....This is another way to help get your volunteer time in....help us with the cleaning BEFORE you leave.

Available at the snack bar, the WNHA will have for sale the Sweatshirts for $30.00 and the Vests for $45.00.  The proceeds from the sale of these items will go towards the year end awards at the WNHA Awards Banquet.  We will also have them available at the Awards Banquet.  You can check them out at the WNHA Store!  So, get yours and get branded...

We hope you all are as excited as we are for all the new things going on with the WNHA!  The Board is looking forward to a great year, a great eventing experience, meeting everyone and then to close it out with a spectacular awards banquet!!!!  So, come be part of the WNHA!!! Hope to see you all there.....
