Every day I have been Miss Rodeo Wyoming has been a
different adventure, I never take a single day for granted. This month has been
time for me to reflect and go over my times so far traveling this country
representing my great state. I love this job and the opportunities I have been
given. I would like to take a moment to thank the Miss Rodeo Wyoming
Association for all their hard work and support. Without them, my job would be
much harder! From scheduling all my appearances to making sure my budget is
kept up to date, the men and women on the Association truly have an invisible
job behind me. This is my thank you to everyone who puts time into making my
year as Miss Rodeo Wyoming the best it can be!

The month of March was full of clinics. My first clinic was
to Utah for Rodeo Queen Boot Camp. 3 days filled with lots of learning and of
course some fun. I went down a few days early with Miss Teton Co. Fair and
Rodeo, Maarissa Mason. We rode horses at Heritage Ranch a few days and had my
official Miss Rodeo Wyoming photo shoot.
Thank you to Preston Kent for letting us ride some of your horses and
also to Hazen Studios for getting some amazing shots that I know will make
heads turn!

Boot Camp was a wonderful time. I learned so much from the
clinicians and was able to meet young queens who have a bright future ahead of
them, I know in that room were future Miss Rodeo America’s. I was asked to be
in the fashion show at Boot Camp where I wore clothes provided by local stores
and also got to showcase some of my favorite outfits I own. It was so much fun
getting to let loose one night and have a blast with the other girls modeling. On
Saturday I was truly humbled when the girls voted me their Miss Congeniality
for the weekend! As Miss Rodeo Wyoming, it is my goal to reach out and inspire
young women to reach for their goals, thank you to everyone for reassuring me
that I am doing what I set out to achieve!

My next clinic was the Miss Rodeo Wyoming clinic in Douglas.
11 girls from across the state came and gained lots of knowledge from all our
clinicians. We had 3 days filled with information for these girls to gain and
lots of memories that were made. I would like to thank our clinicians for
taking time out of their lives to help us out; Sally Haythorn, Kimberly Kuhn,
Holly Kennedy, Kari Bright, and Dr. Don Cobb! I would also like to recognize
and thank the two women who organized the entire clinic; Jamie Pond and Beth
Wood, without you ladies; this clinic would not have been possible! THANK YOU
to everyone who made this weekend great!
