1. The cost of an individual monthly open pass is $80 (per person) & the full amount is payable upon registration. These passes are valid for the calendar month of purchase only.

This waiver releases the Nicola Valley Rodeo Association from all liability for use of the Nicola Valley Rodeo Association facilities & property. Arena use is at the risk of the passholder. (Waivers are located below.)
4. Riding passes do not provide entry to any scheduled event or clinic held at the rodeo grounds. Open riding passes do not provide access to roping practice. Open roping passes do not provide access to open riding.
5. Open riding passes allow access to use the arena during flexible hours whenever no pre-scheduled or regular activity is taking place. Regular activity includes watering & grooming of the arena surface, which will, as much as possible, take place on a schedule. However, some variation in timing & arena condition will be unavoidable. Nicola Valley Rodeo Association is a non-profit organization. We rely on the generosity of our members & volunteers to maintain the rodeo grounds.
6. Drop-in OPEN riding passes are available through the website only. Advanced registration must be submitted 24 hours prior to confirm availability & to arrange access to the facilities.
