Miss Rodeo Wyoming Clinic

Wow, did we have a great turn out at the Miss Rodeo Wyoming clinic!!! Stacy Jo Berger did a wonderful job in preparing for the clinic and all the girls came eager to learn and work on their personal skills to better represent their titles or work on running for a new title. I was so excited about the enthusiasm the girls brought to the clinic. They really showed great growth and improvement over the weekend and went home with a list of materials to study including the PRCA Rulebook, the PSN, the PRCA Media Guide, and so many more materials to get their knowledge up to better do their job in promoting and informing about the sport of rodeo. It takes a good cowgirl who is a lady to have a rodeo queen position and do it correctly, the etiquette one must have in and outside the arena is what makes it special. I am eager to keep teaching myself to be the best I can be, and share with everyone I meet, to make them the best they can be too! It’s a good thing! J

Boot Camp Miss Congeniality

Had a great time in Ogden, Utah working on myself to be the best I can be this year as Miss Rodeo Wyoming. I was honored to be a part of the Boot Camp Fashion Show and had a blast going down the catwalk with Miss Rodeo Utah, Jamie Udell. Not only did we wear our queen attire but they also dressed us in very fun casual wear to model while there. I did have my dancing boots on while I was up there and everyone had a great time!

I was so honored to receive the Boot Camp Miss Congeniality Award for the Second Consecutive Year. It meant a lot to me after spending time with so many wonderful ladies from Washington, Idaho, Texas and Utah. I cherish the friends I have made in Utah and will always keep them close.

The last night Miss Rodeo Utah, Jamie, took us for dinner and indoor surfing!!! Let's just say I was really good at the WIPE OUT!!! :-) :-) Surf's Up Wyoming!

Cheyenne Frontier Days Volunteer Crisis Fund

I was honored to speak at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Volunteer Crisis Fund as the Guest Speaker. It was fun to spend time with my CFD Family and raise money for the CFD Volunteers in need due to tragedy.

I am pictured by the fireplace with the CFD General Chairman Rod Hottle and at the table with my autograph sheet sponsor Pioneer Printing. Pioneer Printing also sponsored my saddle when I was Miss Frontier in 2009. Jerry and Rod have never stopped supporting me and I appreciate their generosity and time.

Legislative Session at the State Capital & NEW SPONSOR!

I had a wonderful time going back to the State Capital for the Legislative Session. I had worked during the 59th Legislative Session as a Student Page, so it was fun to go back and see all the familiar faces. Representative Hans Hunt was a student with me at the University and he introduced during the session on the House side. I was also invited down onto the floor of the Senate side, where Senator Tony Ross introduced me. While at the capital, I met with Governor Mead and Secretary of State Max Maxfield. What an exciting day, full of Wyoming pride.

The little boy pictured is Little Will Kallal, he is my buddy who also came to my coronation ball.

I am so thrilled to announce my new wonderful Sponsor!! Miller Insulation Co, Inc., is sponsoring my Fuel Card to send me down the road. Fritz and Karen Messer are the two greatest people I am so blessed to know and have with me on this exciting journey! I really appreciate their support and look forward to the miles ahead thanks to them!!

Hello Kissimmee, FL

What a nice break from the cold into the sunshine! I had a blast in Florida at our many school visits, the Silver Spurs Pageant, the Rodeo, time in the sun at the beach, air boating, and even hog hunting. And Yes...we did rope them! :-)

The Pageant was a lot of fun and very well done! The rodeo was also a lot of fun and Wiplash my favorite cowboy monkey was there. I had fun riding Lilly and Seminole and really enjoyed all of the local and rural people of Florida. I also learned about the term "Cracker Horses". Florida was the perfect place to soak up the sun especially at Cocoa Beach! Loved Ron Jon Surf Shop! Thanks to Laura and Mark for our sweet southern hospitality! What a fun trip for a Wyoming girl far from home!
