Canadian Pro Rodeo Hall Of Fame (CPRHF)

The Canadian Rodeo Historical Association(CRHA) other wise known as the Canadian Pro Rodeo Hall Of Fame(CPRHF). Features photos, biographies and memorabilia of Canada's most outstanding, professional cowboys, cowgirls and rodeo animals. We honor the hardcore, respected rodeo of Canada!


Founded in 1979


During a gathering of the Rodeo Alumni at the Canadian Finals Rodeo in 1979 a proposal was made to organize a Canada Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame. Further meetings were held resulting in the Canadian Rodeo Historical Association being formed. It became a registered association on June 19th, 1980. In 1981 the Association was granted tax free status as a charitable organization by the Government of Canada.


Twenty eight people became founding members when they donated $1,000.00 each to the association. Later nineteen people joined the organization as Life Members and one as a Charter Member.


On November 15th, 1981 the first contestant, Pete Knight, and the first animal, Midnight, were inducted into the Canadian Rodeo Hall of Fame. To date there are 143 inductees in the Hall of Fame.


They began showing artifacts and inductee's pictures and bios with mobile showcases and later had a mobile trailer to display the artifacts and honor the inductees.


It was decided the Canadian Rodeo Historical Association needed a permanent home for the artifacts and Hall of Fame. Thus began several fund raisers. Two raffles were held as fund raiser; one for a motor home and one for a van, which brought in about 30,000.00. Other raffles such as a Cash Calendar were held. Then in 1990 they held a huge cattle drive which made about $400,000.00 plus. These events were made possible by the numerous volunteers and supporters of our organization. Canadian Rodeo Historical Association and the Stockmen's Memorial Foundation became partners to found the Western Heritage Center. Sadly the Western Heritage Center did not survive but both associations are still active individually.


The Canadian Rodeo Hall of Fame Foundation was registered on September 1st, 1998 in order to preserve the name Canadian Rodeo Hall of Fame.


May 3, 2000, the Canadian Rodeo Historical Association obtained the name Canadian Professional Rodeo Hall of Fame as a registered trademark.


After being without a home for several years the Canadian Rodeo Historical Association is a non profitable organization are now looking into possible locations to house their artifacts and honor the inductees. To appear on our sponsors page, please submit any housing donations to the Canadian Historical Rodeo Association.

Motorized Pro Q&A

How I can connect a digital SLR camera with an astronomical mount?

I have a Canon 400D and a Sigma 18-250 lens. I take photos in the Milky Way is shown on the landscape. Is it possible to bring art engine design and the Celestron CG-5 or Sky-Watcher Pro Goto EQ5. If so, Can you explain how? It's been a little difficult to find information. I guess there must be no other standard adapter (or many). NOTE I am buying my stuff astro ($$$$$$), so slowly mounting apo refractor should receive in the future, meanwhile I will use my digital SLR. If you have comments mounts on such fields .... you are welcome.

You certainly can! The Canon has a standard 1 / 4 "x 20 mounting holes in the lower. The CG-5 mount will have that type of screw the connector on the motherboard. Root around the web CNC Scopestuff or source to see if they offer anything. Something I like to ask strongly that it is using a zoom lens for this type of photography. Instead of using a primary objective. What I use are older, Pentax M42 screw lenses that work well in The new digital SLR. All you need is a simple adapter plate. In my current collection, I have fisheye 17 mm Russian M42 28mm, 50mm Canon (current era), a 135 and 200 mm telephoto, M42, both mounted. These cameras are used and old at times, but still exploited for what you're doing. You need not worry the approach, if you stop the lens down to a full open stop and leave the lens at infinity. Another useful accessory for a intervelometer (cool word Scrabble Eh?). This little device allows you to program the camera to keep the shutter open for hours (or until the battery dies), without touching the camera itself and the induction of any movement of the camera. You can get all these things on eBay too. for example - http://tiny.cc/fV45W http://tiny.cc/hazmN http://tiny.cc/FwnNH downstream of its accessories can be treated is longer battery life, a question the camera and a battery eliminator - http://tiny.cc/jOBz2 http://tiny.cc/tcfrl http://tiny.cc/NFxgV http://tiny. cc / vDvzA
