Hi Everyone.  Kristy Wheeler has graciously managed the CSRHA web site since its inception, and we should all be tremendously appreciative of the work she has done. She has asked, however for relief from this duty and I, with her assistance have agreed to take on the task.  Please bear with me as I learn the system and get up to speed.

My name is George Pfeiffer, and I am a recently elected member of the CSRHA Board of Directors.  My wife Nancy and I moved to Big Horn, Wyoming in 2010 from Nebraska where we competed in the Central Plains Reining Horse Association.  I taught at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln for 27 years.  Among my duties was to teach an introductory computers class for the College of Agricultural Sciences.  However, you need to be old enough to remember MS-DOS and Lotus 1-2-3 to know what I taught, so web site management is a new adventure.

I hope over time to add a few of my own ideas and any ideas that members might have to make the site as useful to you as possible over time.  I am always open to suggestions, critiques, complaints, and new ideas.  Feel free to contact me at gpfeiffer1@gmail.com as frequently as you wish. Spring can’t be too far away.  See you in Gillette.

Our objectives: To promote and encourage development of public interest in agriculture and ranching through the promotion of public Reining Horse Shows; the development of suitable and proper standards of performance and judging intended to govern all Reining Horse Contests sponsored and approved by the National Reining Horse Association (NRHA); to encourage the development and breeding of better Reining Horses; and to develop and disseminate informational material deemed desirable to provide contestants and spectators a better understanding of a proper performance of the Reining Horse in the show arena.

Description of a Reining Horse: A reining horse may be of any breed, size, shape or color (a legal size horse). To rein a horse is not only to guide him, but also to control his every movement. The best reined horse should be willingly guided or controlled with little or no apparent resistance and dictated to completely.

CSRHA Purpose Statement: To promote and encourage interest and participation in the sport of reining through informational clinics and public reining horse shows . Our shows will adhere to the standards of performance and judging as set down by the National Reining Horse Association.
