Interested in serving as an ARC director?

ABOUT US: The Association of Rodeo Committees (ARC) was formed in 1979 when several leading rodeo committees determined that they could improve their events by sharing information and presenting a unified position. ARC is a 501c6 not-for-profit organization and is guided by the Board of Directors that represent rodeos from across the spectrum including large stock shows to the local community rodeos. The Board meets virtually throughout the year to stay up to date with rodeo news and to provide subcommittee updates on Outreach & Education, Membership, Grants & Funding and Bylaws. The ARC Board produces an annual conference and hosts a committee mixer during the PRCA Convention in Las Vegas. The Board is led by the Chairman and is supported by the Association Contractor who is an hourly contractor.
