PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE<br />

Hello CGA,<br />

It looks like the rains may have stopped for a while, so<br />

I hope everyone can get there horse friends out for a<br />

little bit of riding.<br />

Well I’m going to remind all districts again that you<br />

need to have your districts contracts turned into state<br />

office. We still have some districts out there that have not turned in there district<br />

contracts. Districts also need to turn in there show schedules. When riders go<br />

online to check your show schedule and see nothing scheduled they make plans<br />

to go to other districts and may not check your schedule again which means you<br />

have lost rides for your district. The show schedule also affects the insurance for<br />

CGA and makes it hard to estimate future insurance costs. Please get those<br />

contracts and show dates into state office. Remember these are requirements to be<br />

a CGA district.<br />

If you or someone you know has not claimed there year end state award you need<br />

to contact state office. You only have until March 1st to claim your awards.<br />

The next Board of Directors meeting is March 12, in Fresno, all board of directors<br />

need to be in attendance along with all district delegates.<br />

Ride hard and be safe, and remember to wear those helmets.<br />

The Judge's<br />

Corner<br />

"The Judge’s Corner" has appeared in this paper with a varying degree of regularity<br />

since 1991. CGA Judges, Members and Work Crew are invited to submit difficult calls<br />

or unusual questions that occur so that others can learn from their experiences. The<br />

best ones (unusual or just plain odd) will be printed here.<br />

If you have input for this column, please send your question to the CGA State Office.<br />

Your question will be answered by a Master Judge and the Rules Chairman. If there<br />

is any disagreement, it will be submitted to the Rules Committee and MAC for final<br />

resolution.<br />

If anyone has questions concerning this ruling you may contact the Rules Chairman,<br />

Andy Krogh 760-505-8241andy@kroghwelding.com.<br />

Q: Can a known, “coach” or “trainer” other than the parent, enter the arena on foot<br />

with the rider and horse (who are in an advanced class “AA” and higher) and assist<br />

the rider and horse over the start line by leading the horse by the reins past the start<br />

line.( The horse actively refuses to cross the start line. The rider usually cannot<br />

make the horse cross the start line without assistance from the person on the<br />

ground.) Can the same, “coach” “trainer” remain standing in the arena and loudly,<br />

“coach” the rider through the event The “coach/”trainer” remains at the start line<br />

and is standing near the center of the arena. There are other horses and riders in the<br />

arena at the time.<br />

A: There are multiple thing going on it this question so let’s break them down<br />

1. The Assistant (be it a coach, trainer, parent or other person) can walk the<br />

horse/mounted rider through the gate into the arena and across the 80’ foul<br />

line. RB 4.3<br />

2. The Assistant cannot lead the horse across the timing/starting line in any<br />

class other than Leadline. RB 2.3<br />

3. After the Assistant releases the horse it must be brought under control prior<br />

to the judge signaling for the approval to begin the course. RB 4.3<br />

4. There are no State rules as to where a coach can stand and coach from. The<br />

judge in the arena may tell the coach to move if they feel it is necessary for<br />

their safety.<br />

5. The Judge should not coach the rider.<br />

6. Other horse/riders are allowed in the arena if it meets the criteria in RB 8.1e<br />

see below<br />

8.1 e. The minimum size of the arena in order to be able to run all 13 CGA events is<br />

120' wide by 250' long. In this case, no more than one rider shall be in the arena at<br />

one time.<br />

Note: More than one rider may be in the arena at one time if the arena is at least 120'<br />

x 270'. In this case, the beginning of the 80' foul line should start from a point at least<br />

20' from the entrance gate and all riders in the arena who are not currently participating<br />

in the event shall remain mounted and keep their mounts in the 20' area behind<br />

the back portion of the foul line. Any rider desiring to be the sole rider in the arena<br />

during the running of the event must be afforded the opportunity.<br />

LATE NIGHT RIDERS<br />

By Charlie Moore<br />

Hello from District 1. I would like to take a moment to thank Sheri Herchkorn who<br />

been writing the newsletter article for the past few years. She has done a great job<br />

and I hope I can fill her shoes! Wish me luck!<br />

As we approach the end of January I hope you have all recovered from the busy<br />

Holiday Season and are healthy and ready to ride. Due to the rain, we had to cancel<br />

our show for January 8th and 9 th . We need the rain, but it would be nice if it<br />

stopped so we could still have our shows and ride our horses!<br />

So since I have no show results, I can catch up on things about our exciting 2011<br />

season.<br />

We have our Shamrock Pot of Gold Show scheduled for March 5th and 6th. The<br />

two day highpoint show will have $100.00 cash for highpoint, $50.00 cash to<br />

reserve highpoint and $30.00 cash to 3rd place in each of our 6 divisions!! That is<br />

over $1000 in CASH going back to our riders!<br />

All of us at district 1 are already working on our big Aloha Show that is planned for<br />

June 18th and 19th. If you have never attended this show, you are really missing<br />

out. This show has wonderful highpoints a barbecue and dancing on Saturday<br />

night. The Odom’s ground is FAST, FAST, FAST too. We will be sending out entry<br />

forms and have one in the newspaper in April so be watching for them, you don’t<br />

want to miss this show.<br />

If any of you are interested in helping sponsor these awards or getting sponsors,<br />

please contact me. We have the sponsor letters available and will be advertising<br />

our sponsors in our articles and out at the arena. Sponsors can also place banners<br />

at the arena.<br />

If you haven’t done so, check out our District 1 web site at Batbgymkhana.com.<br />

Web master Danna has done a nice job on the site and is still doing improvements.<br />

But the schedule of shows and events is up along with photos. You can check the<br />

site for show cancellations in case of rain. Also become a fan of Bay Area Time<br />

Busters on Facebook for up to the minute updates.<br />

Sign up forms for district year end awards are also available at the shows. The<br />

awards are really nice and we hope to have a lot of you sign up and be presented<br />

them at an awards banquet after the show season is over. I think year end awards<br />

are not only something to work towards, but are a nice present for yourself to<br />

acknowledge all you and your horse’s hard work through the year. For the 2010-<br />

2011 show season the level 1 prize is a custom Wade saddle pad, level 2 is a “bling”<br />

hair on hide breast collar and level 3 is an embroidered vest. We are hoping to have<br />

samples of these great awards so everyone can see the quality and work towards<br />

earning one.<br />

Hope to see you all soon, and until next time, be safe and wear those helmets!<br />

This has been one of the wettest winters in northern <strong>California</strong> in many, many years.<br />

Our Halloween show and our Turkey Trot and our Christmas shows were all rained<br />

or mudded out. That hasn’t happened in a long time. So I have absolutely nothing<br />

to write about until our first show on March 5th.<br />

We are hoping for a dry Februrary in order to get the arena dry enough to ride in<br />

early March. We will just have to wait and see what happens.<br />

In the meantime, polish your gear and get ready for another great season of riding in<br />

CGA.<br />

We are not running any Sunday “day” shows this year but are going to try out<br />

Friday night/Saturday night shows and see if that attracts more riders. The combination<br />

of running late on Saturday night and then having to get up so early on<br />

Sunday to run a day show was burning out our helpers and workers. The Friday<br />

night followed by Saturday night should be a little easier on everyone plus we will<br />

all have Sunday to get ready for “work” the next day. Of course those of you that<br />

work “swing shift” might have a problem with new times. So it’s: Friday night<br />

shows - Sign up at 6 p.m. ride at 7 p.m. and Saturday night shows - Sign up at 5:30p..<br />

ride at 6:30 p.m. All other Day shows remain Sign up at 8 a.m. Ride at 9:15 a.m. We<br />

are hoping to avoid the heat of the late afternoon by starting at 5:30 instead of<br />

4:00p.m.<br />

The other big news is District 5 will be having an overnight campout at Stewart’s<br />

Horse Ranch in Point Reyes on April 30 - May 1, 2011. Everyone is invited to join<br />

us. You don’t need to be a CGA or District 5 member. So mark you calendar and<br />

plan on a fun couple of days riding in beautiful Pt. Reyes. Check<br />

www.latenightriders.org website for details.<br />

The club also is planning a Poker Ride and we will bring back the very popular Tack<br />

Sale/Swap for our September 9 & 10 shows with the addition of Crafts. There is no<br />

charge and everyone is welcome to participate. Stay tuned for the Poker Ride date<br />

as the club hasn’t yet decided when that will happen.<br />

Welcome winter!<br />

As you know our November shows were cancelled due to too much rain! We are<br />

definitely having a wet winter. I hope all of you are having a chance to ride<br />

between storms.<br />

If any of you have been able to make it over to District 27 Ione you know their<br />

shows have been very large (74-101 riders). Some of us are definitely taking<br />

advantage of the covered arena.<br />

Our year end awards finally arrived and we will be having our yearend party on<br />

January 15 th . The results are still secret at the time that I had to get this in for<br />

printing so you will all read the results next month!<br />

As you read this in <strong>February</strong> it will be time to start thinking about our shows<br />

starting in March. Our first shows are March 19 th and 20 th . Please be sure to note<br />

that we will not be doing a show on Friday nights in March and April but will<br />

resume them in May.<br />

Also set aside the dates in June for our 2 nd Annual Geek Show! Can’t wait to see<br />

what the Geeks have found for this year!<br />

I hope you have all had great holidays and I am looking forward to seeing you all in<br />

March!<br />

NORTH WEST GYMKHANA ASSOCIATION<br />

BAKERSFIELD AREA<br />

By Claudia Payne<br />

claudia_payne@att.net<br />

District 10 would like to thank Marc McCaslin, the arena owner, for all his hard work<br />

in making sure the ground was great so we could have a show. Mr. McCaslin the<br />

ground was fast!<br />

All of the brave riders and spectators that came out to the show deserve a hand.<br />

Under 40 degree weather, dark cloudy skies and a wind chill factor that felt like 20<br />

degrees you all stuck it out and rode with no whining. You people were scary,<br />

smiling, laughing having a good time, you are a tough bunch.<br />

Our next show is Feb 18th, a Friday night show. Sonja Peery will have another<br />

wonderful warm meal for us (chicken n dumplings).<br />

A thank you to the parents who helped with the gate, set up events and made sure<br />

the kids were on and ready.<br />

See you at the next show!<br />

BE SMART!!<br />

WEAR YOUR HELMET WHEN YOU RIDE<br />

DISTRICT 27 - IONE/SUTTER CREEK JACKSON AREA<br />

CASTLE COUNTRY RIDERS<br />

http://www.cga27.com<br />

By Carole Lindstrom<br />

Saturday, January 8, the fog was so thick at our house I wasn’t sure I could find my<br />

way down the drive way to get to our arena in Ione. Not only was it foggy, it was<br />

cold. Not just cold, freezing cold. I made it to the arena bundled up like an Eskimo<br />

and suspected my husband was right when he said “No one is gonna come out to<br />

ride in this kind of weather.” Boy, were we wrong. They came and kept coming<br />

and when they were all entered in the computer there were 92 riders shivering<br />

around the arena.<br />

The rain and wind during the past weeks made a small lake of the east end of the<br />

arena so there had to be a slight change of plan and Speed Barrels had to be<br />

replaced with Figure 8 Flags. There was only a little grumbling, mostly from me,<br />

but even with the changes we were able to get the show started just a little after 10<br />

and things ran pretty smoothly. But with nearly 100 riders and lots of new riders<br />

and kids it was slow. Thanks to the arena Manager, Jeanne Dudak, who was<br />

always thinking, we managed to keep the show moving by starting another event in<br />

the second arena as soon as one finished so there was never an empty arena. The<br />

lights were scheduled to go out at 7 and it soon became evident we’d never get<br />

Page 6<br />

through Quadrangle with so many riders before the lights went out. We sure didn’t<br />

want to be running in the dark again so I rode around asking groups how they felt<br />

about skipping Quads and going home a little early. Most reluctantly agreed but<br />

then Maria de Montigny suggested we run Poles I, the only other short event still<br />

available. Jeanne thought about it and decided, yeah, we can do that if we run it in<br />

two arenas. It worked. We finished 7 events, had our awards ceremony and were<br />

out of there before the lights went out at 7.<br />

It was a fun day. We had lots of great help in the booth and many willing hands in<br />

the arena. What a wonderful bunch of people we have at District 27. I know there<br />

were lots of parents out there who’d have much rather been home with their feet up<br />

by the fire, but there they were, hands frozen, feet numb shivering while they set<br />

poles, dragged barrels, set up events, opened gates and did just whatever it took to<br />

make the show a success. Without them there wouldn’t be a show.<br />

Our show on January 22 will be over when you read this and I suspect we’ll have<br />

another big crowd. The two shows in <strong>February</strong> are on the 12th and 26th and then<br />

we’ll be ready for some spring weather we hope. The first show in March is your<br />

last chance to sign up for our District 27 year end awards and most of you have<br />

seen the wonderful saddle we’ll be awarding for High Point in every division. Then<br />

the last three shows of our season will be our annual Castle Country Challenge and<br />

you sure don’t want to miss out on that.<br />

Check out our web site at CGA27.com for lots of information. If you still have<br />

questions feel free to email or call one of us. We’re happy to help.<br />

We are working hard to get the arena ready for out next show on January 15. It will<br />

be a day show sign-up start at 8am and ride at 9am. It is an odd month so we will be<br />

running barrels, PII,Speed Barrels, Big T, Speed Ball, and Single Stake. We are<br />

expecting great weather, but do dress warm as the wind does make it chilly.<br />

We will be collecting non-parishable food for our food drive, please donate. Please<br />

DISTRICT 33<br />

VALLECITOS SPURS SAN MARCOS AREA<br />

By Andy Krogh<br />

We ended last year with a wet and waterlogged arena, having to cancel our<br />

December show.<br />

The new year started with questions on whether the arena would be ready to ride or<br />

not..¦.well it was!! With Bob Krogh on the tractor for many hours on Saturday<br />

prepping the arena and the practice arena the grounds on Sunday were perfect. All<br />

of our riders rode hard and had a lot of fun. With nearly 60 riders we started at a little<br />

after 9am and including a much needed lunch break we were finished by 3pm. Lunch<br />

included Burges and Grilled Chicken Sandwiches, Oh So Good.<br />

Our Judges and arena crews, timers and volunteers are what make the show go so<br />

quickly, A Big THANK YOU to all of you! If everyone keep chipping in it will always<br />

go fast and be fun for all.<br />

I do not know where <strong>February</strong> will bring me as I am expecting my fist<br />

child....hopefully before the show or after the show...Please God not during the<br />

show!! We will be riding fast and hard on <strong>February</strong> 13th. See you all there!!!<br />

DISTRICT 40 - SANTA MARIA AREA<br />

CENTRAL COAST RIDERS<br />

By Laura Rice<br />

District 40 is pleased to announce that after months of searching we have finally found<br />

a new arena to use. We would like to thank Jeanne and Bobby Jones for donating their<br />

arena for us to use. There were some modifications that needed to be made and they<br />

were gracious enough to accommodate us. Thanks for all of your hard work.<br />

Margo Abatti has measured the arena and it now meets the CGA requirements. Hooray!<br />

District 40 will hold its 1st gymkhana in almost a year on <strong>February</strong> 6 th . We are very excited<br />

to get things underway. We are trying to accommodate everyone by having both<br />

Saturday and Sunday shows. We are hoping to provide fast ground for all of the AAA+<br />

riders as well as safe ground for everyone. The arena is located approximately 10 miles<br />

east of Orcutt on Cat Canyon Road.<br />

We are basically starting from scratch and it would not be possible without all of the<br />

amazing people involved. We are borrowing the obstacles from Bob Vaughn, the timers<br />

from Jeanette Veino, and the computer and printer from Allyson Shiffrar. Thanks to all<br />

of you for supporting District 40. Hopefully in no time we will be able to purchase our<br />

own equipment.<br />

We would also like to thank the previous board members: Christopher Rowles-<br />

President, Wes Handy- Vice President, Ashlee Vaughn-Secretary, and Allyson Shiffrar<br />

– Treasurer. Thanks for making it a great club.<br />

Now, we would like to welcome the new board: Wes Handy-President, Nathan Rowles-<br />

Vice President, Laura Ledesma-Secretary, and Allyson Shiffrar -Treasurer. Laura Rice<br />

will be announcing and writing the newsletter. Janice Rowles and Jeanne Jones will<br />

be in charge of awards. Jeanette Veino will be the contact person for District 40<br />

information and show schedules.<br />

We would like to thank District 14 Margo Abatti, Sherrie & Shelby Dugger and Shannon<br />

& Corrine Bowman For coming to our meeting and supporting us.<br />

We all look forward to an awesome fun filled year,<br />

Explanation of 5-D Jackpots<br />

For All CGA State Sponsored Shows<br />

Note: District’s may alter all the Jackpot options as they choose for local shows running jackpots or<br />

Mystery jackpots<br />

Riders may optionally enter a jackpot for any or all of the regular events. The cost is an additional $5.00<br />

per event, and a rider may choose to enter the Jackpot for none, some, or all of the regular events. These<br />

jackpots are unrelated to the rider’s division or age, and whether or not they are riding a horse or a pony.<br />

They are based strictly on the time the rider achieves in that event. Only the times of the Riders entering<br />

the Jackpots count. The size of the payout is determined by the number of riders in the jackpot. The<br />

Payout is:<br />

Fastest ride - 40 % of the jackpot<br />

2-D ride - 30 % of the jackpot<br />

3-D ride - 10 % of the jackpot<br />

4-D ride - 10 % of the jackpot<br />

5-D ride - 10 % of the jackpot<br />

CGA - None. All jackpot money is paid back to the riders.<br />

2-D, 3-D, 4-D and 5-D rides are those that come the closest (without going faster) to the fastest time<br />

of those entering the jackpot +(plus) the adjustment factor for that event. The adjustment factors are<br />

listed below.<br />

Event 2-D Adjustment 3-D Adjustment 4-D Adjust. 5-D Adjust.<br />

BAR + 1.380 + 2.761 + 4.141 + 5.521<br />

BR + 1.120 + 2.241 + 3.361 + 4.481<br />

F8F + 3.130 + 6.260 + 9.391 + 12.521<br />

F8S + 0.820 + 1.640 + 2.461 + 3.281<br />

HS + 1.564 + 3.127 + 4.691 + 6.255<br />

KH + 1.317 + 2.634 + 3.951 + 5.268<br />

P1 + 1.534 + 3.067 + 4.601 + 6.135<br />

P2 + 2.367 + 4.734 + 7.101 + 9.468<br />

QR + 1.587 + 3.174 + 4.761 + 6.348<br />

SBL + 1.204 + 2.407 + 3.611 + 4.815<br />

SBR + 0.814 + 1.627 + 2.441 + 3.255<br />

SSR + 0.544 + 1.087 + 1.631 + 2.175<br />

BT + 2.035 + 4.070 + 6.105 + 8.140<br />

For example, if the fastest ride in Poles I was 10.990 seconds, and the jackpot was $400.00, then that<br />

rider would receive $160.00. The rider closest to the 2-D time of 12.524 (10.990 + 1.534) without<br />

going faster would receive $120.00. The rider closest to the 3-D time of 14.057 (10.990 + 3.067)<br />

without going faster would receive $40.00. The rider closest to the 4-D time of 15.591 (10.990 +<br />

4.601) without going faster would receive $40.00. The rider closest to the 5-D time of 17.125 (10.990<br />

+ 6.135) without going faster would receive $40.00.<br />
