Adios to “IN THE ZONE”

The 'In the Zone' section of Whoazone.com was initiated during a turbulent period in NRHA's history.  But the Association has made many promising changes in 2007 & 2008, including revised bylaws, improved rule changes, and elected representation from regional levels.

While Whoazone has strived to provide a place for the voices of everyday reining members to be heard, we feel things have steadied up enough for us to lay our keyboard aside and let NRHA's web site and administration be the main source of info and guidance for the future of the membership.

Whoazone extends a debt of gratitude to the involved parties who have contributed so much to the sport of reining and this section of Whoazone.  We hope you continue to keep us bookmarked for the great stallions, many horses for sale, plus the NRHA, NRCHA and NCHA statistical info.

NOTE: historical "In The Zone" info will remain on-line along with some poll results, but all polls are discontinued.
