The National Reined Cow Horse Association (NRCHA) Foundation invites you to the first-ever Night at the Stockyards event held Thursday, October 17, 2024, at Billy Bob’s Texas, during the NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity®. The inaugural event will raise money for the NRCHA Foundation to support the Foundation’s commitment to raising money for youth scholarships, the Cowboy Crisis Fund and heritage preservation efforts.

During this can’t-miss gala, attendees will celebrate the spirit of the West while dining on cowboy cuisine, socializing with NRCHA family new and old and enjoying a special live painting session by NRCHA member and Streakin Be Art owner Josey Butler. Enjoy silent and live auctions featuring one-of-a-kind items and experiences, including an exclusive VIP box seating package for the Open Finals at the 2024 Snaffle Bit Futurity®.

“We’re so excited for this event,” shared NRCHA Foundation Chairperson Chelsea Edsall. “We’re actively seeking donors for the auctions and can’t wait to celebrate our cow horse family during the NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity®. If you’re interested in donating or sponsoring, please reach out to me at foundation@nrcha.com or visit nrcha.co/nrcha-foundation-night-at-the-stockyards.”

The event will kick off with a cocktail hour at 5 p.m., Central time, continue with a buffet dinner at 6:15 p.m., move into the program and auctions at 7 p.m., and cap off the evening with dancing to Southern Chrome—Dallas-Fort Worth’s hottest country cover band—at 9 p.m. Tickets begin at $120 for a single and increase by sponsorship level, which includes reserved tables and other amenities.

“This special addition to the 2024 NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity® helps celebrate our cow horses and members outside the arena for a night of fun and camaraderie,” said NRCHA Executive Director Emily Konkel. “We can’t wait to share this evening with our community and cow horse fans.”
