We are looking for volunteers!!
Interested in volunteering with the PGHRA? Check out the position descriptions below for more details, and if you think you would like to help out please email us at northernbcreining@gmail.com, attend one of our monthly general meetings, or contact us on Facebook.
Sponsorship: Help collect donations from various sponsors and help advertise for the sponsors we have! Being able to branch out and find additional sponsors is a great asset to have.
Whipper-In: We need someone to run the gate at our schooling shows and our major show. This ensures the competitors know what order that are competing in and helps our show run smoothly! Myrna Thiessen has volunteering to coordinate the whipper-in schedule, but will need volunteers! Contact Myrna on Facebook.
Scribe: We need a scribe every time we have a judged event. Being a scribe is a great learning opportunity as one can learn how the class is judged. Often this is a paid position at our major event as we also expect the scribe to be responsible for the judge (picking up from the airport, pick up and dropping off at the hotel on a daily basis, etc.).
Tractor Driver: We need someone to harrow multiple times during out reining events as the ground is a very important aspect to keeping our reining horses safe while they do their sliding stops. Anyone that will be harrowing needs to be trained by the PG Horse Society so if you are interested in this position please don't delay so we can get you the training you need. This position is also often a paid position for our major event as we also expect the tractor driver to be in charge of all the ground prep leading up to our major show.
Announcer: We need someone to announce during our major event. The announcer can advertise for our sponsors and help our show to continue to run smoothly. This is also usually a paid position and the announcer is expected to be there very day for the duration of the show each day.
Dinner & Dance Coordinator: Our major fundraiser needs many hands to be able to be successful.
Thank you card distributor: After a successful year we need to make sure we thank all the people that helped make it happen.
Schooling Show Secretary: We need someone to collect money at each of our schooling shows and write out the order of go for each class.
Show Set Up Crew: At our major even we need people to help with stall labeling, setting up the win photo area, putting up banners, setting out cones and chairs, laying our prizes and preparing the show office. At our schooling shows we need cones and chairs set out as well as trail courses set up at the appropriate times.

Prince George Reining Association
is Celebrating 26 Years! The Prince George Reining Horse Association was established in 1992 when Danny and Pam Morrison were approached by the BC Reining Association requesting that a chapter be established in Prince George, British Columbia. The task was undertaken by the Morrison's and the result from the local horse community was overwhelming. The Association continues to work towards fulfilling its mandate of promoting the sport of reining for all levels of riders by hosting educational reining clinics, sponsoring winter riding sessions and hosting two National Reining Horse Association Shows each year. The hosted shows ensure to offer beginner and intermediate classes with modified patterns, while still offering a competitive environment for the advanced level rider. The Prince George Reining Horse Association has now been in operation for 26 years, celebrating its Silver Anniversary and has grown to be one of the premier reining associations in British Columbia. The association has expanded its reining show bills to also offer Open and Non-Pro Derby classes, Open and Non-Pro Futurity and NRHA classes while offering over $15,000 of added prize money to each show. |

What is Reining?
To rein a horse is to not only guide him but, to also control his every movement. The best reining horse should be willingly guided or controlled with little or no apparent resistance and dictated to completely. Any movement of his own must be considered a lack of control. All deviations from the exact written pattern must be considered a lack of/or temporary loss of control and therefore a fault that that must be marked down according to severity of deviation. Credit is given for smoothness,finesse, attitude, quickness and authority of performing various maneuvers, while using controlled speed which raises the difficulty level and makes the event more exciting and pleasing to watch as an audience. |
