Beginning in 2012, the YRHA Green Rookie class is open only to those riders who have earned points in previous years and are still working toward accumulating the necessary 30 points to graduate and earn the Green Rookie belt buckle. Also beginning in 2012, YRHA will be offering two new classes for beginning non pro reiners: NRHA Green Reiner Level 1 and NRHA Green Reiner Level 2. Eligibility for NRHA Green Reiner classes is based on NRHA earnings and youth points and requires an NRHA Associate Membership (see the NRHA website for complete eligibility rules and guidelines, http://nrha1.com/entrylevelinfo). At all Yellowstone Slides, the YRHA Green Rookie class will be run concurrent with the NRHA Green Reiner Level 1 class and both classes will follow NRHA rules with one exception: YRHA Green Rookies may earn more than 10 points for first place in the concurrent class.

With Sadness for our Friends

The YRHA extends condolences to two of our cherished members, Anne Kent and Sarah Blackburn, both of Billings, whose horses were among those that perished in an early morning barn fire at High Plains Stables on Monday, April 23. The Billings Fire Department confirmed that 19 horses died in the horrific blaze which completely destroyed the 20,000 square foot barn in west Billings. Many of us knew, loved, admired and cheered for Heir To Shine aka "Prince Harry" or "Harry" (Anne's horse) and Shining Miss Jack aka "Grete" (Sarah's horse). Please keep Anne and Sarah in your thoughts.
