The National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association Alumni will have their 16th Annual Reunion June 15 and 16, 2007 at the College National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyoming. The reunion will be held at the Parkway Plaza Hotel in Casper and the rodeo is in the Casper Events Center.
Past champions and contestants from the “sevens”:1957, 1967, 1977, 1987, and 1997 will be honored and all former members of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association are invited to attend. The reunion, held during the final weekend of the College Finals Rodeo, is an opportunity to meet old friends and enjoy a great rodeo.
Activities include a hospitality room, meetings and introductions, and a luncheon.
“It is always great to hear the wonderful stories, happenings and mishaps, that make up the college rodeo experience” says Sylvia Mahoney, former rodeo coach and founder of the alumni group.
Rookie of the Year scholarships are given by the alumni and this year funds for the scholarship are coming from a saddle drawing. Two beautiful hand tooled saddles will be given to the lucky ticket holders at the Saturday night performance. Tickets for the drawing will be available at the alumni booth in the Events Center. A portion of the proceeds from the drawing will go to the Central Wyoming Hospice in Casper in gratitude to the City of Casper for their hospitality over the years.
