Stallion Silent Auction

Stallion Silent Auction to be held at the 2008 Ariat Tulsa Reining Classic!
With the new two arena format, the Ariat Tulsa Reining Classic and the John Deere Futurity promises to be the best ever... and the most expensive to run!  We need your help more than ever to make it all happen.  Sponsorship may be made in cash, or though donation of a breeding to a stallion.  Every sponsorship helps.

Volunteering at the Ariat Tulsa Reining Classic
Would you mind being a scribe? Working in the office? Running the back gate? Running paid warm ups? OKRHA and its events are only as good as its volunteers. We need help all the time to do all kinds of different things. Don’t forget that OKRHA members need to do ½ day of service (i.e. scribe, office, back gate, stall check in, banner hanging, etc.) at one of the shows to be eligible to for year end awards. Contact Tami Wagman (918) 857-2725 or Carole Hoffman at 918- 688-5124 to volunteer. Thanks for your help!
