  Please note that in order to qualify for year end standings you must volunteer with North Branch for at least 3 hours over the show season. We always need people to help with gates, prize handouts, scribing, etc. At least half of these 3 hours must be complete in the first 4 shows. Volunteer hours are required by Reining Alberta. Any volunteerism via Reining Alberta Main Branch will qualify for North Branch vounteer hours. 

North Branch can always use more volunteers, so if you have some spare time and are interested in getting involved please contact Patty Barnas at RANBinfo@gmail.com

Here you will find all the forms that you will need for the year. Please note that the entry form for the shows reflects the order of go for the day.

A new class has been added this year – Green As Grass Reiner. This class has been formed with the intention to foster a supportive, open and low stress class for those who are wanting to get their feet wet in the sport of reining. If you should have any quesitons or concerns, please shoot one of us an email or phone us and we will be hapy to help you out with any questions.

Approximately 9km north of the Morinville turn off start looking for the Morinville Hutterite Colony (west (left) side of road; large group of blue farm buildings). It’s just after TWP RD 564. Take your first west/left turn AFTER the colony at the Alcomdale corner (tiny community on the east side of road) – this is TWP RD 570. (If you cross rail road tracks or get to the Busby turn off YOU WENT TOO FAR ON HWY 44) • TWP RD 570 is GRAVEL road and you have about 13 km on this road to get to our place. The range roads start at 270 but change once your cross the Fifth Meridian aka Range Road 10. We are between RR 11 & RR 12 on the south/left side of the road. We are the third yard from the corner of RR 11 as you travel west bound. Pull in driveway at the house and take an immediate left to follow the driveway out to the arena.
