Members:  Please help with fundraising!  New rules require members to sell $100.00 worth of raffle tickets or aquire $100.00 in sponsorships or work 1 day at the Ft. Bridger Rendezvous on Labor Day weekend, to qualify for any year-end awards.   The more funds that are raised, the better the prizes will be.   Please take the time to help with the fundraising, even if you don’t qualify for any high point  awards.    The Grossman & LaMere members have sold over $500.00 worth of raffle tickets at their local rodeos & county fair.   We need more members to support our organization with this kind of effort!!

THANK YOU TO ALL THE INDIVIDUALS AND BUSINESSES THAT HAVE DONATED TO OUR ORGANIZATION!  CHECK OUT THE SPONSOR PAGE AND SEE WHO THESE PEOPLE ARE.  IT IS BECAUSE OF THEM THAT WE WERE ABLE TO HAVE SUCH NICE YEAR-END AWARDS!!

 
Our fundraisers were a success in 2010, as we raised about $2500.00 from our raffle & $1000.00 working the gates at the Fort Bridger Rendezvous.  In 2011, we raised $1500.00 form our raffle & $1100,00 working at the Fort Bridger Rendezvous.  These fundraisers are necessary because our awards at the end of the year cost over $5000.00 & we earn less than half of that from our shows & membership dues. We need the help of all members to make this work & to provide  nice prizes at the end of the year.

 

Keep tuning in to this website as we continue to update the pages with current information!
