Two years. 730 days. The best season of my life serving as the 2025 and 2026 Miss Prescott Frontier Days Rodeo Queen, proudly representing Prescott Frontier Days, Inc. - World's Oldest Rodeo.
I couldn’t tell you how many miles I’ve traveled, but oh, the places I’ve been. From the top of Idaho to Oregon, and all across the great state of Arizona. News interviews, member meetings, rodeos, pancake breakfasts, parades, community events and so much more. Every mile led to a new adventure, a new lesson, or a new friend. Countless laughs, unforgettable stories, and memories that I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life.
This crown has been so much more than a title. It has challenged me, humbled me, and helped me grow into a stronger woman, leader, and ambassador for the sport of rodeo. It gave me the privilege of sharing the history and traditions of Prescott Frontier Days while meeting people whose kindness and encouragement have left a lasting mark on my heart.
People often say that queening creates lifelong friendships that eventually become family, and that couldn’t be more true with Prescott Frontier Days. Every member, board member, sponsor, volunteer, and supporter has become family along the way. Thank you for welcoming me with open arms, believing in me, and making these last two years more special than I ever could have imagined.
To the board, Jim, my director, and my coordinators—thank you for trusting me with this incredible opportunity. Your guidance, encouragement, and unwavering support have meant more than words can express. My life is better because of each and every one of you, and I will forever be grateful.
To my family and friends, thank you for every early morning, every late night, every mile on the road, every encouraging phone call, and for cheering me on through it all. None of this would have been possible without your love and support.
To Ava and Ellie, oh, the places you’ll go and the people you’ll meet. I can’t wait to watch this journey shape your lives just as it has shaped mine. Embrace every opportunity, soak in every moment, and never take a single day for granted.
Thank you to everyone who made these two years so unforgettable. It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve as your Miss Prescott Frontier Days Rodeo Queen.
For the last time, signing off,
Anna Butler
2025 & 2026 Miss Prescott Frontier Days
