Royalty Contest

How would you like to participate in the Western Saddle Clubs Association Royalty Contest? The WSCA board has implemented the following in support of the WSCA Royalty Contest. Any contestant entering the contest will receive a stall free of charge at the Champ Show, your entry fees will be paid, and you will receive the privilege of being released first to the barns at Champ Show so that you can begin unloading and preparing for the riding portion of the contest.
