Thanks to everyone who participated and helped out with the finals.

The STRRA President, Jimmy Henry, and all of the 2011 Directors would like to say a big THANK YOU to all of our sponsors for the 2011 season. HEB came on board with a large contribution and we definitely appreciate it. Once again, Twisted X Boots donated countless pairs of boots to the cowboys throughout the year. And, the evidence can really be seen when you walk around any of the ranch rodeos since many of the cowboys are wearing them! Morales Feed gave gift certificates at every STRRA sanctioned rodeo and that was greatly appreciated by the cowboys in this rough year thanks to the drought. Triple R Rodeo played a big part as well throughout the year. We would also like to give many thanks to all of the people who helped make the finals such a success.
