ith hundreds of our families getting ready to pack up their horse trailers and head to Gonzales this month, we thought that you would like to know local events going on and where to shop and eat while visiting this beautiful and historical part of Texas.

With a whole week to explore the area here is a great look at local businesses that would love for you to visit them while you are in town. Don't be afraid to venture out of Gonzales and visit the charming towns of Shiner and Yoakum because they all have great things to experience too!

Gonzales, Texas

Gateway to Texas histor y...

Information Courtesey of the City of Gonzales

Gonzales, Green DeWitt's frontier settlement, holds a unique place in Texas history as the site of the firing of the first shot for Texas independence on October 2, 1835. Eighteen townsmen, forever linked with heroes of the revolution, stood on the bank of the Guadalupe River and refused to give up their small cannon to the Mexican Army, while the women hurriedly fashioned a flag holding a black replica of the cannon on a white background, emblazoned with the words that would echo through the years: Come & Take It. In 1836 Gonzales further carved out its niche in history when 32 of her men rode to martyrdom at the Alamo in answer to William Barrett Travis's poignant call for help against overwhelming odds.

It was to Gonzales that survivors of this

6

battle came, bringing General Sam Houston the news of the garrison's fall.

It was here that the Runaway Scrape began, when Houston, who was training his troops here, ordered the town burned and began his retreat to San Jacinto. It was here that the soldiers returned, determined to rebuild their town and continue their dreams of a better life in a new land for their families.

These 49 original blocks and the seven public squares that form a Greek cross saw ranchers and cattle drovers, cotton farmers and bankers follow the returning settlers. All joined together to forge a better, stronger Gonzales, building plantation homes, cottages and Victorian mansions, along with the courthouse, stores, churches, schools and public buildings that would withstand the test of time in a place that became known as "The Birthplace of Texas Freedom" and "The Gateway to Texas History."

I

hope everyone is getting as excited as I am about the finals! It is hard to believe it is almost here! This next month will be a very busy one for me and I know it will be for you too…..but don’t get to busy to keep practicing so you will be on top of your game when you get the finals.

We want you to be ready to obtain your goal and go to Des Moines, IA with us at the end of June. Of course, keep your grades up too…..we know many of you will be missing your last week of school so sure don’t want you to have to worry about not finishing your grades out as good as you can.

Now for some serious business…..if you don’t read anything but this I will be so happy! CONTESTANT’S YOU MUST BE CHECKED INTO THE OFFICE ON SUNDAY MAY 25, 2014 BY 1PM!!! If you break down, please call my cell 979-412-2551! Please do not push this time, it is mandatory and a very serious deadline. If for some reason something does happen in your travels……….CALL 979-412-2551. I hate to even bring this up, but there has been contestants sent home because they were late.

Also, don’t forget your grades! This is a must!!! A final report card or your last 6 weeks report card will work. Everyone must show a copy of a current coggins paper at the gate and if you are crossing the state lines, you will need health papers.

We are excited to finally have something for the barrel and pole benders…. we are announcing that we will have two jackpots for the Barrel and Pole Benders on Saturday and Sunday night and will offer exhibition runs to first

100 on Monday – Thursday. They will all be ran on different stakes. Don’t forget we will be having a baking contest, so make sure you bring something sweet to enter in the contest, we will be taking entries on Sunday, May 25 between 10:30am and 1:00pm (see the flyer in the paper).

Also, we will be having a Member/Parent ribbon roping on Wednesday, May 28, you will enter when you get to Gonzales….so parents start practicing your running.

We will again be showing the performances live on the internet on our own website this year www.tjhra.org This might be fun to let your teachers know and they can watch you while you compete. I still have some spots to sell on the web broadcast if you are interested but the last day will be May 15.

If you have any questions before you get to the finals, please do not hesitate to contact me.

I always say, no question is a dumb question!

It is better to ask and feel comfortable about something then not ask!!!

JunioR HigH state Finals will Be liVe on ouR own weBsite

www.tjhra.org

You will be able to watch the TJHRA state finals on our website live....we will have many ways to advertise during those rodeo performances.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SHOWCASE YOUR CONTESTANT?

The first 100 to place an order will be showcased during the rodeos to the side. These spots are going fast - all you have to do is contact Anne at www.texasjuniorhighrodeo.com or call her at 979-412-2551. We will put it together for you once you scan a picture to us......let the world see your child for only $100 for the whole week. We will have a place on the side that will showcase all the contestants!

It will look like this

Texas Junior High Rodeo Association News Region VII Wrap Up

By molly atkinson– TJHRA Reg VII President

R

egion 7 finished up their season February 21 in Edna Texas. It was a great year for our region.

We were able to give saddles to the All Around Cowgirl and Cowboy and also to the event winners and buckles through tenth place. Hats off to our State Directors and Region Officers who worked extra hard to make this happen again! Also, we thank Alan Jeffery with Broken Arrow Buckle Company for donating the Event Champions with a Champion buckle to go along with their saddles.

Our All Around Cowgirl was Avery Sulak, Avery worked very hard to stay on top of the leader board. She will be going to state in four events: barrels, poles, girl goat tying and girls breakaway.

PERFORMANCE REPORT

Region I’s Year in Review

By Kennady Johnson

– ariat Performance Reporter

013-2014 has definitely been one for the books here in Region I. There have been high and lows, wins and losses, but through it all, memories made. The friendships gained in high school rodeo will last us a lifetime. I think Monty Reed said

Jace lane

it best when he said, “We are all a big family. If you need anything all you have to do is ask and everyone is willing to help you.” This statement couldn’t be any more accurate. We are so much more than just a rodeo region, we are a family that looks out for each other’s best interests.

We were blessed with 103 members that each brought something new and different to the rodeo arena. Because it’s not about counting the seconds, but making the seconds count. And I believe that is exactly what each one of us strive to do. We sent ten members to the 2013 National High School Finals Rodeo in Rock Springs, Wyoming. Region I was also the Reserve Texas Champion Team in Abilene at the 2013 THSRA State Finals, and we plan to take it all June 6-14 this year.

Along with the end of a rodeo year means we have to say a sad goodbye to our beloved seniors. We wish each and every one of you the greatest success in all of your future endeavors, in and out of the rodeo arena. It’s so great having such a talented group of athletes to look up to and strive to be like.

This year was filled with such great memories. From bulls getting loose in Hereford, unexpected dismounts off the rump of a horse in the tie-down, Kelsey Graf and Jace Lane winning the all-around titles at Aaron and Ed’s Rumble on the Red, rodeoing in massive dirt storms, breaking records, and much, much more.

But one thing we excel at in Region I is shattering everyone’s expectations, and that is a quality we will always try to keep alive!

PERFORMANCE REPORT

By raelyn hill – ariat Performance Reporter

T

he rodeo season for region II has came to an end with a wonderful finals. All of the state qualfiers are ready to go and compete at the next level at state finals. The weekend before region finals there was a beautiful prom. At region finals there was senior night and our region olympics.

Cowboy Prom was filled with alot of fun and of course, dancing! The theme this year was Western Herritage and the parents did an amazing job of making it look great! Senior night was bitter sweet. The seniors will be missed but will leave us with lifetime memories. Region II wishes them good luck with the next step in their life.

The annual olympics were competive and a good time, like it always is. The competitors participated in games such as a wheel barrel race, the lifesavor game, tug-o-war, and a relay race. There were nine teams that participated and the winners called themselves "The A Team." The teams all admitted to having a good time and they look forward to next year!

This year region II had alot of new members making region II the second largest region. With more members of course came tougher competition. The all around cowgirl and rookie of the year was Delani Wood. The all around cowboy was Dakota Felton and rookie of the year was Walker Harris.

Region II is state bound and ready to go compete! This year was great and region II is thankful for the new members we had. Next year will be good as well and we look forward to what is in store.

Good luck to all of the state qulaifiers!

Farm & Ranch Family The folks at McCoy’s Building Supply understand that it takes a lot of hard work and the whole family pitching in to get things done on a farm or ranch. That’s why we’d like to take some time out to salute Texas High School Rodeo Association families who are farmers and ranchers. In our monthly Farm & Ranch Family Spotlight, we’ll feature one family, sharing their story of how they work together as a family to make their farm or ranch successful. The spotlight will run for 10 months; each month will feature a different region. Each Regional McCoy’s Farm and Ranch Family will receive a $100 McCoy’s Gift Card. The McCoy’s Farm and Ranch Family of the Year will receive a $500 McCoy’s Gift Card and will be announced at the 2014 THSRA State Finals.

Congratulations to The Hedeman Family Tuff, Tracy, Lane and Trevor

by Ava Anderson

This month's McCoy's Farm and Ranch Family from Region X, is deservingly being honored, but I must confess, the Hedeman family requires very little introduction, as that family name has been well recognized throughout the world of rodeo and bull riding for many years over.

Tuff Hedeman is a rancher and retired rodeo athlete, and an active bull rider from 1980-1998. He married Tracy Stepp in May 1986, and they have two sons, Lane and Trevor. The Hedeman's live on a ranch in Morgan Mill, just outside Fort Worth, Texas.

The Hedeman ranch is home on the range to their calf roping and team roping horses, plus two bull-roping horses and a few barrel horses. The family is thankful that there is a McCoy's located in Stephenville, where the family shops for Priefert Products such as panels, roping chutes, feed troughs, arena drags and so forth. They usually pick up a variety of other products for Tracy, who raises registered Limousine cattle as she shows heifers and steers. The family also raises coastal hay on their 100 plus acre cattle ranch. The family motto, "loving what you do, and being able to make a living at it, is a great lifestyle!"

Ranching and rodeoing has been a part of the Hedeman family lifestyle for years and it's only understandable, that sons, Lane and Trevor would follow in their parent's footsteps. Lane was a mem-

ber of THSRA for four years and his brother Trevor has also been an active member of Region X for the same amount of years. Trevor served as the Team Roping Director for Region X in 2013 and further served as State Team Roping Director the same year. In 2014, Trevor served as the Calf Roping Director for his region. He is a Senior this year, and a member of the Bloomer High School Rodeo Team. He competes in Team Roping as a Header, Calf Roping and Boys Cutting. Trevor qualified for the State Finals all four years. He plans to attend Team A&M in the Fall on a rodeo scholarship.

Lane and Trevor get their love for rodeo and high school rodeo honestly following in their father's footsteps. Richard "Tuff" Hedeman has truly lived up to his nickname as he rode and roped his first calf at age four. Later, he rode saddle broncs at age thirteen and then began riding bulls. A high school rodeo alumni, Tuff won the high school rodeo bull riding, plus the All Around titles in New Mexico in 1980. The following year, he won the team roping title, plus the All Around designation again in 1981.

The rest of his professional career has been decorated with 11 trips to the NFR, three-time PRCA World Champion bull rider and the 1995 Professional Bull Rider's World Champion. His legendary career earned him a coveted place in the Texas Rodeo Cowboy Hall of Fame in Fort Worth, Texas.

Hedeman now produces bull ridings and serves as an ambassador for CBR. His two sons, work for CBR by roping and dragging bulls on the weekends whenever they are not competing at rodeos themselves. With what little free time the Hedeman family has to spare, they especially enjoy team roping, and getting together with family and friends. The Hedeman's would like to let everyone know that they feel very honored to represent Region X and to be chosen as this month's McCoy's Farm and Ranch Family. They would also like to say howdy and extended thanks to their many fans and friends around the country!

PERFORMANCE REPORT

This is Where the Cowboy Rides Away

While this was happening, the announcer was reading a note the contestant had written to their parents, usually thanking them and expressing their love for them. After lots of tears and hugs, the seniors were all standing on horseback in a line in the arena. Seth Gillespie was chosen to present a rose to Kelley Williams, the regional secretary, on behalf of the senior class. Then the class of 2014 took their last ride, lapping the arena with excitement before competing in their last Region III rodeo.

s the Texas High School Rodeo Association Finals approaches and region rodeos draw to a close, we prepare to say goodbye to some of our favorite competitors - the seniors. At Region III, we celebrated this transition with a special ceremony called the Senior Ride. The Senior Ride was held before the last performance of the regional finals. Each senior rode out to meet their parents in the middle of the arena, dismounted, and handed them a rose.

CONGRATULATIONS AND GOOD LUCK TO REGION III’S CLASS OF 2014!

Wisener – ariat Performance Reporter

ts official! The 2013-14 THSRA Region V season has come to an end. No one expected this season to go by so quickly. The competition was fierce at the Region V finals as each competitor preformed there events in the best way they knew how. With each competitor that performed came a spotlight of improvement and accomplishments because here in Region V, “Trust me we never lose! We either Win or Learn!”

Although the weather conditions may have been a little unpleasant to be in throughout the finals weekend, it didn’t stop Region V contestants for showing up and showing out. There was no doubt some high school students who wanted to win big. Keyshawn Whitehorse became the 2nd time Region V Champion Bull Rider this year. His accomplishments made by only being a sophomore in high school. Keyshawn gives God all the glory for his achievements. Keyshawn quotes, “I have a deep conviction that my gifts,

talents, and skills to bull ride and compete come from God alone.” Another constant that never seized to turn heads was our All Around Champion, Karlie Steadham. Karlie won the average checks in both goats and breakaway. AS the weekend went by she moved up seven places in breakaway making her eligible for state. But there was no doubt Karlie was already state bound as she came into the weekend winning the pole pending with 30+ points. Karlie also qualified for state in girls cutting as well. Our 2nd time Region V Goat Tying Champion was Sarah Gunter. Not only did Sarah win goat tying but she moved up 4 places in the breakaway standings. Sarah states “It was just overall a great way to end my senior year in Region V.” A big congratulation goes to all of Region V State Qualifiers for their awesome effort and accomplishments they have done this year. At out finals we saw our seniors compete for their last region V rodeo only to see them in the future become the next generations of great cowboys and cowgirls. We awarded scholarships to seniors who applied themselves in away to make a difference in the rodeo atmosphere in their own towns and schools. Also we congratulate our new student officers: President Shellie Lummus, Vice President CK Wright, and Secretary Shaylon Elms. As we head to State Region V will be supporting there region. Region V will have a student campaign for the State Officer position which will be Kadie Beth Wisener. Region V is getting their name out there only to hope to turn some heads, but we couldn’t do this without the Lord making our every movement. Because the scripture says in Exodus 14:14 “The LORD will fight for you, you need only to be still.” Region V will see you in Abilene!

SponSoR SpoTLigHT:

Maker of the Lone Star® Brand Born in the deep pine forests of eastern Texas more than eight decades ago, Texas Farm Products Company began as one man’s dream. In the spring of 1930, M. S. Wright began building a company and a legacy that has grown to represent one of the oldest and most respected agricultural and pet food processing companies in the South.

M. S. Wright selected Nacogdoches as the location to build his business without ever having seen the town. In 1930, Texas Fertilizer Company was founded. In 1931, the name was changed to Texas Farm Products Company and construction began on a new feed mill. That mill is still in use today, having had numerous additions, improvements, and modernizations over the years.

As the small plant expanded production and grew, so did the company’s reputation for an unusual level of quality assurance and service to the customer. Reflecting Mr. Wright’s unwavering commitment to make the best product for the dollar and to deliver that product on time, the company soon established itself as one of the most service-conscious producers in the business.

In 1978 the Lone Star brand was expanded and the newly built pet food plant began making Lone Star Pet Foods. Since that time, the pet food division has seen many changes and improvements, and has produced many other brands of pet foods including Star Pro Premium, ANF, and our own brand of premium and holistic pet foods, Precise.

For over eighty years, experience has taught us that nobody cares more about pets and animals than their owners. They ask for quality products, friendly and helpful customer service, and competitive pricing. And we’ve spent years developing and refining our products to meet those high expectations.

Our in-house laboratory assures all incoming ingredients are safe and nutritious.

Each production run is thoroughly lab-tested to meet our specifications, which are designed to provide maximum palatability and nutrition and ensure the health of your animals.

Today, Texas Farm Products is a fourth-generation company, known worldwide for the production of quality livestock feeds and pet foods. The company has developed a reputation of integrity that is generated by a large number of animal-loving employees, many of who have been devoted to the company for several decades.

To keep pace with the ever-changing needs of their customers, new products continue to be developed. Texas Farm Products’ cutting edge research and development program is continually creating and monitoring new products that tomorrow may represent new standards within the industry.

Though Texas Farm Products began as a modest vision more than eighty years ago, it has grown to represent much more today. But one thing remains the same – we make safe, reliable, and wholesome products that provide the best possible nutrition for the animals we love.

At Lone Star®, we are obsessed with quality. We are aware that the Lone Star reputation is found in every bag of feed that ships from our plant. That’s why we strive to produce superior products. Our USDA certified laboratory is an integral part of the production process. From the raw materials that come in by railcar and truck to the finished products that are shipped to customers, every component is tested and retested. This assures ingredient purity as well as formulation accuracy in every bag that leaves the plant. The laboratory techniques include state-of-the-art computer analysis as well as visual examination by seasoned lab personnel ensuring consistency. What you see on the label is what you get in the bag and it is the same every time, guaranteed. We are committed to making our premium Track Star® formulas the best feed for your horse.

Track Star provides fortified nutrition for the entire life of the horse. We make several formulas to fit different needs as your horse matures.

PERFORMANCE REPORT

ALL AROUND CHAMPIONS

By kalli Davis

S

– ariat Performance Reporter

eniors Reid Zapalac and Jimmie Smith came out on top this year at Region 6, winning the coveted All Around title for 2014. If you’ve ever wondered what makes an All Around champion, it is HARD WORD and DEDICATION! I got to talk to Jimmie and Reid about this year and their future plans and goals.

This year Reid made an impressive statement catching all 12 of his steers in the bulldogging. Reid said that his greatest accomplishment would be winning the All Around, as well as the calf roping and the steer wrestling.

After such an awesome season Reid’s hard work will not end there, in order to prepare for State Reid has been practicing steadily. “Me and my dad try to get in as much practice as we can. I’ve been going to the gym too, to try and stay fit and in shape.” Not only has Reid excelled in high school rodeo this year, his favorite rodeo moment of the year was winning the Roy Cooper Roping! What great accomplishments for Reid this year! Reid has enjoyed being a part of the THSRA because it has taught him to be humble and respectful. He loves rodeo and the great friends he has made!

reiD zaPalac

When asked how long he has been rodeoing Reid’s reply was, “I’ve been rodeoing since I could scream and fight and beg my parents to put me on a horse.” But I can assure Reid’s rodeo career will not end here, he plans to attend Wharton Jr. College where he will continue to rodeo!

Then he hopes to transfer to A&M and study ranch management.

Reid’s goals stop nothing short of making the NFR one day, and I have no doubt that he is on his way!!!! Reid told me a little about his favorite horse blue, “I learned to rope on him and I know this day I could jump on him and he would give me everything he has!” There is just something about a once in lifetime horse that is so sweet!

When Reid isn’t rodeoing he enjoys ridding young horses and working cattle. He likes training cow dogs, and of course just hangreiD zaPalac ing out with friends and living life!!! Reid will be on a show called, “Highway Cowboys” that is currently being shot this month! On the show the viewers get a glimpse of what it’s like to be a working cowboy. They film the boys going out on calls to catch loose cattle. Reid enjoys being on this show, he says it is a great experience, “It’s really fun being behind the scenes and seeing what tv really is!” Keep your eyes open for Highway Cowboys on TV and watch for Region 6’s All Around Cowboy, and upcoming TV Star!

Miss Jimmie Smith was Region 6’s All Around Cowgirl this year!

In order to prepare for state Jimmie will keep practicing like she has been doing all year! Jimmie doesn’t want to put pressure on herself Jimmie smith because it is just another rodeo, but as long as she keeps doing what she’s doing she is sure to succeed! Jimmie’s greatest accomplishment this year was being accepted to Texas A&M University!!!! Jimmie says, “It has always been my dream to go there and I look forward to becoming an Aggie in the fall.” Jimmie is thankful for all the opportunities that high school rodeo has given her. Jimmie has had the opportunity to be a State Officer and meet many new people. She has enjoyed the opportunity that has taught her a lot more about this great association. Jimmie credits high school rodeo for making her tougher competitor mentally and physically, and a tough competitor she is taking the All Around title this year!

Jimmie has been rodeoing all her life, “Ever since I was a baby I have been on a horse. It’s always been something I loved to do.” Jimmie doesn’t have a, “favorite horse.” She chose one horse for me to tell y’all about, “Scooter my rope horse has given me many opportunities throughout my life! I was lucky enough to run him in the barrels and qualify for the CPRA finals in 2006 and 2008. Now he is my amazing rope horse!” How awesome is that, he truly is a genuine horse!!!

Other than rodeo Jimmie has her hands full being FFA and National Honor Society President!

Jimmie also enjoys running track and being with her friends! Jimmie wants to say thank you to everyone who has been a part of her high school years!!! She can’t wait to see all of you at State!

Region 6 has so many outstanding members, I am so glad I have gotten to know all of you! I have been rodeoing with Jimmie and Reid since we could walk pretty much and they have always been amazing competitors! I can’t wait to see what the future holds for each of them, and I am so glad I got to write this article to high light two great friends and Jimmie smith a great cowboy and cowgirl!

PERFORMANCE REPORT

Strength in Rodeo By syDney GolBoW

I

– ariat Performance Reporter

n Philippians 4:13 it states, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

This is true in all aspects of life, especially in the sport of rodeo.

Not only does it take physical strength to be able to compete, but it takes mental strength as well.

The dictionary definition of "strength" is the quality or state of being strong. Physical strength has to do with the body. Your physical strength is very important to your performance. Lower body strength is used in almost every event. For example, barrel racers use their legs to hold on and turn and bareback riders use their legs to spur one in the neck.

Upper body strength is important as well, especially for calf ropers and goat tiers. To maintain your physical shape, eating right and doing a variety of arm and leg work outs will help out. As your

physical shape improves, so will your performance. Your physical strength isn't the only important factor in being a good competitor.

Mental strength is another factor that goes into being a successful competitor. Some people have a competitive nature and don't need a lot to help them, but others need a little help to block out the mind games people play. Some people need to get away from others and go to their happy place to keep out the negativity, while others can sit and watch every run to plan their every move to help them run better.

Everyone has their own way of being mentally strong, but it is definitely something that does not happen overnight. Practice becoming mentally strong just as hard as you practice to win.

Mental and physical strength are both factors that go into being a competitive individual, and both take some practice. Whether you have a competitive nature naturally or you're one of those who needs a little more help, it is your job to give it 110% at all times.

Congratulations to all of our state qualifiers and remember to maintain your strength at the finals!

THSRA Executive Board Member C

hris Wolfe is one delegate-at-large that we are lucky to have on our executive board. He has been involved in high school rodeo for over a decade, serving first on the Region 4 board for 12 years, and also on the executive board for the past six years. As a delegate-at-large, he “represents the body of members and looks out for what is in their best interest.” He first got into high school rodeo because, “My kids wanted to ride & rope so we started going to some youth rodeos and joined region IV.” The decision to be on the board came because he genuinely enjoys helping kids.

Mr. Wolfe and his wife Bobbi reside in Palmer, Texas. They have three children who all competed in high school rodeo- Kla Wolfe-Sparkman, 2002-2008, Delaney Wolfe, 2002-2012 & Cal Wolfe, 2010-present. All were members of Region IV. Builders First Source is where he works as an outside salesman. When he is not working or helping better the sport of high school rodeo, he enjoys hunting, and also roping, which he started doing after he graduated high school.

Getting to spend time with his family and friends is Chris Wolfe’s favorite thing about high school rodeo, next to the competition you get to see. He feels that the biggest challenge that rodeo faces is, “The cost of Rodeo in general is the greatest challenge, for the parents. The cost of horses, feed, travel and fees.” His vision for the T.H.S.R.A. organization would be for it to continue growing in the number of contestants, and have the payouts and scholarships increase. He would also like to see the National High School finals, and National Junior High School finals come to Texas!

One of Mr. Wolfe’s favorite high school rodeo memories was, “My oldest daughter Kla’s freshman year at the state finals…. A lot of our friends from region IV all parked at the back fence and all

of the younger kids went through the fence to a huge sand pile and by the end of the week it was a huge mud slide.” Mr. Chris Wolfe has been involved with rodeo for many years, and has learned a lot from it. One piece of advice that he would like to give parents and T.H.S.R.A. members would be to, “Enjoy every minute with your family, it really does go by fast.”

Without people like Chris Wolfe, the sport of rodeo would not be what it is today. We all owe him, and the people he works alongside, a huge thank you!

The wonderful people on the executive board, “Work hard at work worth doing,” and make the Texas High School Rodeo Association great! If you see Mr. Chris Wolfe make sure you thank him for his service to the executive, and region, board and for working to making the Texas High School Rodeo Association even better!

PERFORMANCE REPORT PRACTICING PERFECT, PERFORMING PERFECT

By katie

S

Whitaker – ariat Performance Reporter

pring is the air, bringing with it pollen, horse hair, flies, and the anticipation for state. As finals rapidly approaches while cowboys and cowgirls clench their fists and grit their teeth and try to make every practice count.

You’ve all heard the term “practice makes perfect” and it serves a large role when preparing for a big event. Being at your best level is what everyone strives for. We try to “practice perfect”, how do we define perfect in our life?

Everyone has a different definition of a perfect practice and a perfect rodeo. For some it meant they made progress, others maybe they moved up to that next level within themselves. Or even better, winning and setting records. The steps to a perfect practice, then later leading to a perfect performance are simple habits that have to be performed everyday in order to take shape. These steps may not be exactly the same as everyone else’s, but as a general idea the steps to success are all on the same road.

1. Setting goals: Setting goals is an enormous part of practicing and moving forward. In order to know where you want to go and what it is you want to accomplish is the biggest step. It may not be the easiest, but it is definitely an important part on the road to success. Although when we sometimes fall we think, how could I set a goal that high, it was ridiculous to think that. It can be hard to set a goal and feel like you are an eternity from reaching. But even though you may shoot for the moon and may not reach it, you’ll still land among the stars.

2. Making habits: It only takes seven times to make a bad habit, and twenty one times of doing it right to break that bad habit. Laziness is a large downfall of many highschoolers, we get lazy and say “tomorrow“, procrastinate, and try to do things the easy way sometimes, instead of the right way.

Even if it is something as small as picking something up and putting it up or taking the extra minute to do things correctly. A lot of times after a long practice, especially one that didn’t go as planned, or when we are in a bad mood we go the lazy route and put things off. Do it now! Don’t wait, what if you didn’t get the chance to do something over. That small habit may be what makes or breaks you. Just because a small habit is “small”, doesn’t mean it is not important.

3. Appreciation: Appreciating what you have, the opportunities set in front of you, and realizing you might not get this chance again are all part of the process. The right mind set can push you to new lengths. To have a good practice you must enter with a good attitude. Appreciating what other people do to make it possible for you to practice, your mom taking

you to go rope, the friends that invite you to rope, and all the times your dad worked the chute for you and set up barrels.

4. Determination: When we finally set out on the long road to a rodeo we have a our hopes up high and our fingers crossed. We enter the arena ready to win, and instead of it being your day, it may have been someone else’s time to shine. You head home ready to throw in the towel. Don’t do it. Stay on your feet with your chin held high. There will be another day, another chance, you will have your wins and you will also have your days when you head back to the drawing board. You should never feel like you’ve lost, only like you have learned. Teenagers have the tendency to be dramatic. Just shake it off and let those learning experiences fuel your fire and stay determined in what you love to do.

5. Hard work: it may seem cliché to say hard work pays off, but it truly does. There is nothing like the satisfaction of working hard and then seeing it pay off. Hard work is also a habit. Something you have to do everyday and try hard at. When you think you are doing your best, try to do even better. The only person you should try to be better than is yourself.

Practicing hard, staying determined, appreciating what you have, making good habits, and setting your goals high will surely put you on the road to success as we head off to state. Keep your head high and always looking forward will bring you to new heights.

Time to put on the game face and get ready for a great state finals. Practice perfect and it will show when you perform.

PERFORMANCE REPORT

BITTERSWEET By natalie sWenson– ariat Performance Reporter

O

ur last two day rodeo in Groesbeck was bitter sweet. As the year is coming to an end competitors are starting to prepare for their trip to state or make the run to put them in the running for state.

At the last rodeo we had a meeting and had elections for the new Region 9 officer team, Ariat Reporter, adult arena directors, student arena directors, and adult board of directors. Region 9 President Eddie Dyson talked about what competitors and parents should be prepared for the finals March 22 in Huntsville.

Competitors are getting more and more excited with state just around the corner and for some it will be there last. So what are you doing to prepare for state to be successful and have fun in Abilene this year. Many are trying to keep their horses in the best physical shape as well as themselves. The week at state can be the longest week ever if you don't bring your A game. But besides being on the big stage in

the rodeo arena. Competitors can winde down and have fun with their friends in the truck push, dances, and community events.

Taking a quick look at the Region 9 standings there are some competitors that have a strong hold on their first place spots in their events. John Douch in the Tiedown, Hayden Rasco and Lane Ardoin in the Team Roping, Wyatt Chalmers in the Steer Wrestling, Morgan Starns in the Girls Cutting, Kendell Emmons in the Breakaway, and Kelsey Thompson in the Barrel Racing. In the other events competitors are going to put on a good show to grab a hold on the coveted first place spot.

I look forward to seeing everyone at State in Abilene, TX June 6-14.

Good luck to all of the competitors and remember – Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyway!

PERFORMANCE REPORT

Use the Talents God has Given You!

By Brooke

W

Boiles– ariat Performance Reporter

hen slowing down and looking at your life you can often find it as confusing as one of the seven wonders. Trevor Brazile perfectly put things into perspective. He said, "I don't serve God for success. I serve God because he gave up his son so that I could have eternal life with him in heaven and at the end of the day that's all that matters. To know that your friends, your family, and yourself are gonna be in heaven because Jesus made that sacrifice, and all we have to do is believe. The hard part is already over."

I think it's safe to say region X holds a great grasp to our faith, morals and representing

the cowboy way to glorify The Lord.

One of region X's in particular is Shelby Zizzo, who is a senior at Salado High School. She runs barrels and poles and has been Rodeoing since Jr high or when she was about 12 and has competed in HSR all four years. Her Favorite part is the friends you meet along the way along with the competition to quailify for state. Shelby claims, "it pushed me to work harder for what I wanted. The tough competition," she says, "would have to be the hardest part as well. you definitely come across some tough girls to compete against." Shelby plans to continue to rodeo and pursue a degree in nursing and continue on to be a nurse partitioner, while on the side starting her younger horses. Shelby had marvelous days and accomplishments in high school to be proud of. She was involved in FFA and has recieved the highest state FFA degree possible; the lonestar degree. Along with everything else, she participated in the Public Relations LDE contest qualifying for state the past 2 years. This year you can count on seeing Shelby at the CDE state contest for horse judging like many years that have passed.

Region X would like to wish Shelby great support while she makes her runs at the state finals and even more as she makes her runs in life! Good luck and God bless in all you do! We would like to encourage all of you out there to do as Trevor Brazile and the thousand of other looked up to professionals do. Use your talents God has given you to reach people and let them know you love The Lord.

LYDIA MACKAY BIERSCHWALE

The Whataburger Whatakid is selected due to their ability to excel both in and out of the rodeo arena. Whataburger is proud to recognize a THSRA member from each of the ten regions who truly upholds the title “Whatakid!” One of the nominees will be chosen at the State Final Rodeo in June as the Whatakid of the Year. In recognition of this accomplishment they will receive free Whataburgers for an entire year!

By: Ava Anderson

Whatakid’s spotlight shines brightly on Lydia Mackay Bierschwale, an 18-year-old senior, attending Mason High School. Lydia is a member of the National Honor Society, and she’s actively involved in Student Council, and the New Student Welcoming Committee, at her school.

Ms. Bierschwale, was the recipient of the Mason High School Academic Excellence Award in 2011 thru 2012. This aspiring young lady is also involved in UIL Academics; Pioneers Youth Leadership Program; and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

In the same year of 2011, Lydia was also awarded the Mason Cowgirl Track Fighting Heart Award.

This all- around cowgirl and accomplished athlete, plays basketball , runs track and cross country; and her weekends are spent either, hauling to a rodeo or barrel race, competing in track and cross country meets, or competing in basketball games and tournaments. Lydia’s weekdays and after school hours are filled with a diversity of competitive events and practices that change throughout the year. Lydia elaborates, “First there is the short-lived nightmare of cross country, followed by basketball and more basketball, which wakes me up from my nightmare, and soon overtakes my schedule. Then I wrap up my year, by competing in track and field.”

Lydia goes on to share “After school every day I rush home to rope and exercise my horses, and when the sun decides to set, it’s time for me to feed and put up the horses. Then, I’m finally able to head to the house, for a quick bite of supper and to start on a slew of homework due the next day…. And depending on the amount of homework, I can call it a night, anywhere between 10:00 pm to 3:00 am the next morning.”

In the midst of her busy schedule there is a motto that Lydia abides by and that she puts into practice with the rising of each new day, “Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So… get on your way” by Dr. Seuss.

Besides, facing a mountain of school academics and sports activities throughout the week and on the weekends too, Lydia finds a way to preserve through it all. She shares a typical day

in her life “I wake up around 6:30 am to 7:00 am, so then I can get on my way’ to town by 7:55 am for class. My school day consists of my Dual Credit Classes: English, Spanish, Government, and Biology, along with my AP Calculus class and athletics thrown right in the middle of my schedule.”

Calculus being one of her favorite subjects, Lydia quips , “My teacher and the people in my class have a great sense of humor , which provides endless entertainment because me and my classmates find this to be much more funny than most would imagine because our brains our utterly , fried from the ridiculous math, we are being asked to understand.”

Rounding the last lap of her senior year, Lydia is looking forward to graduation and what the future holds. Her future plans include, obtaining a Doctorate OF Physical Therapy and eventually to open her own physical therapy clinic she also wants to spend a few years hauling to pro rodeos and hopefully, qualifying for the NFR. Lydia fondly states “I could not have been more blessed, to have such wonderful family members to teach me everything I know about rodeo and training horses. My dad and grandfathers helped me train every horse I have ever competed on.”

Reminiscing about her rodeo experiences and how she came to own her horses, Lydia goes on to share “My grandfather decided to get into the cutting business and sent one of his colts to cutting school. The horse flunked out twice, so my dad decided to try to make a rodeo horse out of him. Would you believe, in a few years, that horse would become TWJHD State Champion Pole Bending Horse?

Feeling pretty lucky, we decided to train the next colt, which is now my barrel horse. My other grandfathers gave my brother a horse that he had been healing on and shortly thereafter, that horse became my breakaway horse.”

Lydia wraps this interview by giving honor where honor is due, “My dad and grandfathers have always taught me about earning my reward. My family and close friends have been a support group in all my endeavors, and I am grateful for each of them. My cousin, Claudia and my best friends, Catelyn Felts, Elliot Bibb, and Sean Tucker, have always been there for me, by constantly giving me support.

My heroes are my family, and I could not be more thankful to have them by my side.”

Ms. Bierschwale, would also like to extend her thanks and gratefulness to Whataburger and all the members of THSRA, for their support, and for honoring her as a Region X, Whatakid!
