Wow webmaster, thanks for that, however, I think we have figured out that you and the most talked about people on this forum must be very close. You have singled out the rodeo team in speak out and made sure to comment on the rules and what was commented was innacurate. Also, I see that part of my statement that was a fact was TRUE was deleted because of the name and for that I apologize and will not put any more names in here. I didn't think twice since Cattle Drive mentions calling someone a liar and other names were mentioned as well. I have seen names mentioned all over these forums but I will make sure and keep mine out as also will whomever you warned as well.

No, Chasey didn't go to Nationals, (he was the kid that got in trouble). The talk around town is that he didn't want to go but he did go to Oklahoma and competed but that wasn't the Nationals in New Mexico. The National directors were supposed to meet with him and his parents on the day he was supposed to compete but instead they came back home. Guess they were scared of what the outcome was going to be. Otherwise, why would you collect all of the donations from the community and go to Oklahoma where you earn money and not go on to NM? That is a good question that has been on everyones mind about the money. Since they didn't go to Nationals, where is all of the money??? We parents would sure like to know.  On another note, the rodeo team was at the American Cowboy Day and worked hard, raised money for the upcoming year, and that money went to Riverside where the bank account resides and every penny is accounted for. The club is back on the right track    Last edited on Fri Aug 1st, 2008 03:24 pm by

I am wondering what happened with the rodeo team.
I heard that the boy who got in trouble did not go to nationals after all. What happened? And was all of the money raised for the trip turned over to those who did go? Were there records kept of all donations?

| Yep you're right, there are a few more that are messed up with the same stuff he is and we'll boot them out too. We will try to get this club drug free, even if it means kicking a few more out!

Yes Razorback75, that's what they did the last time he got in trouble with drugs. They said it didn't happen at a rodeo so they couldn't do anything about it. That's why parents are so outraged right now. The first time, kids will be kids, 2nd time - its time to punish and I'm sorry - it's not all about your friends. That was our lecture at our rodeo banquet. Your children are responsible for their actions. Another thing parents are upset about, Mrs. McKay is correct in stating the website for the rules. It is clear in their that it will not be tolerated - page 6 10. b) . So why did he even go to Nationals? He should have been apologizing instead of asking for money. Also, I was looking in my daughters yearbook, why isn't he posted in the 4 Year Letterman section like the other girl that lettered 4 years. Was it because he wasn't? I think MOM has mislead so many people and we are more upset with her than with the son. Now, our children are doing all they can to clean up the mess that was made in this club. We have a good group and they are going to go out this weekend to the "Day of the Cowboy" and try to win back the good reputation that they deserve. They will show the community that they are good kids and they are DRUG FREE Hope you will all come out and support them.
Well if the parents are soooo outraged then maybe there should be drug test done before every rodeo. Plus if the rodeo association was so great before this young man got in trouble then his mistake would not be able to "distory" the reputation of this club. This has been a on going promblem even when i was in high school. Bottom line this community has had this promblem long before this child was a round. people need to stop putting all this community prombles on this child. Are you sure that all the kids are drug Free?

| Oh yes, according to the Okee News, the Sheriff's Dept surprised him at night - arrested him and carted him to jail. He has a court date in the near future. This just recently happened and he is out of school.

| Kids that are found with drugs at school are sent to the School resource officer and arrrested, or at least given a court date to appear in front of a Judge to explain their actions.. did this not happen to this kid?

| If I read that right, the high school rodeo association only disciplines (suspends, expels, etc.) for drug and alcohol offenses if they occur at a high school rodeo event. Is that correct?

Best wishes to all the members of the rodeo team at the nationals and kudos to the involved parents.
okeerodeoteam please correct me if I am wrong but from what I read all rodeo team members must be high school students, or recently graduated, in order to participate in rodeo events. In addition, a signed letter stating the student has a passing GPA and has a record of good behavior at school is required by the HS rodeo association(s) from the school the student attends. I understand you are not funded and governed by the local school district but the team members must be students in good standing in their local school district. If this is so how did a team member with prior bad behavior manage to get almost all the way to the nationals?

I would like to introduce myself. I am Melissa McKay & on July 1,2008 I officially became the new coach for our local high school rodeo
team.
This forum was brought to my attention, and I feel that I should respond to you in the best possibly way.
First a little insight on myself & my intentions for our team
I am not just the coach for this team, I am the mother of one of our members, but now I have the pure pleasure of representing 35 of
Our communities’ young adults.
My ultimate goal is not only to set an example for our members, their parents & our community but to stand up for them & to protect their reputation to the very best of my ability.
Over the past couple of weeks there have been several issues that have directly affected our team, and our communities’ outlook on our members. We have a phenomenal group of young adults. I am all for you speaking your minds, and voicing your opinions, but I do ask that the facts be known.
Although we as a team like to consider ourselves a part of the Okeechobee High School, we are not governed by the Okeechobee school board, or any other school board throughout the United States. With this being the case, we as a whole takes pride in governing ourselves along the same lines as other athletic sports, but with that said, we locally, have no control over these issues. I have attached a link to our National High School Rodeo rule & bylaw handbook. http://www.nhsra.com/images/NHSRARulebook-07-08.pdf
As with anything interpretation of these rules are in the eyes of the beholder. Please feel free to read it, quote it, but most of all please understand that every time you make a negative statement against our team, you are hurting more than just one person, you are hurting ALL of our members. We have some wonderful members, and my heart breaks that they are being ridiculed & pulled into such turmoil.
It is not my place to judge, we had a wonderful coach over the past several years, and our team truly has benefited from her drive. I am realistic, and recognize I can not please everyone, but I want you all to know that if I can help resolve any questions or concerns, I will do so to the best of my ability. If I don’t have the answer, or I am unsure of the answer I will find the person who will give the most accurate information possible. What this all comes down to, is our community is outraged & we need you to understand at a local & even state level no decisions are made, these issues are handled thru the National directors. If I can help I will. My email is ktmom1@comcast.net. Also here is the NHSRA executive directors email klsturman@nhsra.org.
Thank you,
Melissa McKay

| Chasey has graduated and Darlene is no longer the coach of the club. We have voted that Mellissa McKay of Custom Graphics now coach the club but in the last Okee News article, Darlene put to contact her with any questions. Wasn't quite clear why she did that.

bballmom28 - you are exactly right! She is a piece of work! Something needs to be done in the school system that is for sure but they can't or they would have kicked him out a long time ago. Now we are stuck. We are going to try to get it cleaned up now that Darlene and Chasey both are out. The problem is, we have a really bad name and it's going to be hard to clean it up.

My previous statement was an error...a letter is a letter until it's received for Band! Yes, we've actually heard that from several coaches at the high school who believe that Marching Band is not a sport! I would pay serious money to see some of those same coaches to survive 1 week of band camp--any takers?
The sad part of the whole OHS/Not OHS Rodeo Team, is that there are some great kids that participate in Rodeo, who work just as hard as the other athletes do and now have to suffer from the whole black mark for this one kid who can't get his act together. Don't judge 1 person against the rest. Sound like it's time to cull the herd.

You know I maybe just parent but can someone explain to me how a rodeo team member can receive a OHS sports letter and get recognition for being a four year letterman if supposedly they are not affliated with OHS? It is an honor to be awarded a letter and then a distinct honor to be awarded the four year letterman award as a senior.
They obviously do not have to follow the same rules as the rest of the "sports jocks"(part of quote from Darlene Bass in TC Palm newspaper) and they cannot be removed from the team that represents OHS even though they are a serious embarrassment to our school!!

I wasn't aware that the rodeo kids were expelled in 06-07. The problem here is that he has graduated, he is 18, and his mother was the coach. It is correct, the Okeechobee High School Rodeo Team is NOT part of Okeechobee High School. If it was part of Okeechobee Co School District, they would have kicked him off the team a LONG time ago. Yes they get a letter but my understanding is - it's not the same as getting a letter from football or baseball. At the rodeo banquet, Bass received MVP and other awards just 1 week after being arrested and Darlene Bass had the gall to lecture the parents about how to watch their kids. Parents and kids were disgusted. It was sick! The sad truth here is, the FHSRA is going to sweep it under the rug as they did for him the last time.

| In the case of the boy allegedly caught with the marijuana plants, I could be wrong but I think he already graduated, and is on the team as a senior, still finishing out the rodeos for the 2007-2008 school year. The arrest was after graduation, and he hasn't been convicted yet, so would the school have any power to do anything at this point?

| A student need only be arrested/charged to be suspended from school. Its called "felony suspension". The student stays home and receives tutoring help or he/she goes to an alternative school until the situation is settled. It has the appearance of an expulsion because of the amount of time the student is not allowed back into school. Were the students in question suspended or expelled? Either way, they shouldn't be allowed to participate in extracurricular activities if they are not allowed on campus.

According to the Okeechobee Clerk of Courts web site
https://www2.myfloridacounty.com/ccm/?county=47
it shows that the Bass boy has been charged but not convicted of the drug charges. In this country, everyone is to be treated as innocent until proven guilty, so I suppose that means he can stay on the team at least until the case goes to court.
He does not have any previous drug charges according to the court records -- just some traffic offenses.
Who are the two who were allegedly expelled for drugs?

A quick check of the NHSRA (National High School Rodeo Association) contestant qualifications clearly would prohibit expelled students and those with drug offenses from competing. It appears each contestant must have a signed letter attesting to their good conduct and passing grades to compete. The signature must be from a school or district official. Although the rodeo team is not funded by student athletic dollars they are still representing the school and competing in a high school association competition.
I certainly hope contestant forms are NOT being forged in order for these kids to compete. This may affect the eligibility of all team members.

Sorry, Bilgerat. I don't know anything about this rodeo team's association with the high school and I don't know anything about the kid.
But I agree with flteacher that this kind of thing shouldn't be happening.

Below is quoted from the article I initially posted:
"According to Okeechobee High School rodeo team coach, Darlene Bass, cowboys and cowgirls competing in the sport of rodeo are not like other sports jocks that get funded by their schools."
If the team is not affiliated with the high school this quote is confusing. Is the rodeo team sanctioned by the high school/school district? If not, they should not be allowed to have "Okeechobee High School" as part of their team name.

| he is one in the same. But the rodeo team is not actually associated with the highschool - they just use their name. the school does not govern them at all. i don't know exactly how this happens but i do know that they aren't part of the FHSAA.

| Yes it can-- as I recall there were 2 rodeo team members that were expelled during the 06/07 school year for drug related offenses.

Expelled students are NOT allowed to participate in school sanctioned events. The rules of the state and national organizations governing high school rodeo events would most likely also exclude expelled students - as they are no longer enrolled in a high school. However, if they were not informed of the students expulsion they would not know to prohibit their participation.
If bballmom28's claim is true regarding an expelled student competing with the HS Rodeo Team some local school officials are certainly violating ethical standards by letting this student compete.
bballmom28 I am not doubting you but your claim is very damning. Can it be proved?

I can tell you they work for it and they earn it. We can sit at our dining room table and watch Jessica Zigler practice; she is out there every day, and most days she's at it more than once. It's a joy to watch. We wish them all the best at the championship.

Congratulations are in order for these seven students!!! I know the kind of work and dedication that it takes to compete at these levels. You've worked hard and I'm sure it will pay off.
(I thought Muscle Shoals was a commute for national competition. Guess I should be thanking my lucky stars.)
