I would like to start my message by thanking the Kirklands for the many hours they put into the GFYRA. My family has been involved in jr. rodeo and highschool rodeo for 9 years and it has always been that the rodeos seem to change locations as the families that have the time and ability to raise the money, locate the stock and secure an adequate arena tend to change as the years pass. I will assure any family that has the time to do all of the above that GFYRA would gladly put the location on the schedule for next year. It is a job that has alot of scheduling conflicts and takes many hours of dedication before each and every rodeo. With that being said let me say THANK YOU to every familly that makes GFYRA such a great and competitive assoc..

My child has been involved in Rodeo for the past few years as well and the rodeos HAVE ALWAYS been split pretty fairly. AGAIN, the name of the association is GEORGIA/FLORIDA, not FLORIDA. I believe that's why the name GA/FL was chosen - because they intended to have rodeos in Ga. & Fl. If you don't plan to have any in Ga., change your name. When someone goes on to the internet to look up associations, well, what do they think when they see the name GA/FL? Yeap, that there are rodeos in both GA & FL. You can't tell me that there were NO adequate arenas available in Ga. No-one obviously looked (or didn't want to look in Ga.)because I know of atleast 4 in Georgia (3 of them right on the Florida Line) that would accomodate WAY MORE trailors than say Jasper. What about you Wayne, you have an arena with water and a big field to park many, many trailors, not to mention Roping Stock!
