State Finals

***VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS***

Due to confusion with the nominating/election process for youth officers/directors at our Prescott Rodeo, the youth elections will be redone at the State Finals.
There will be nomination sheets (for each position) available at Check-in for the State Finals on Thursday, (the nominations will be open until the first go-round of the cutting starts); a ballot will be generated from these nominations and available on Friday morning, and need to be filled out and returned prior to the Rodeo Performance Friday afternoon. The results will be announced during the final Performance on Saturday.
