Two weeks ago, I had the honor of returning to River Falls, Wisconsin as Miss Rodeo Minnesota 2027 Lady-in-Waiting to help with the Falcon Frontiers Day Rodeo. Hosted by the UWRF Rodeo Team, this rodeo kicks off the Great Plains Region’s fall season. It was also such a special experience to help crown the newest Miss UW-River Falls Rodeo in the very same arena and ceremony where I was blessed to be crowned in 2023. What a privilege it is to go back and lend a hand at the place where it all started for me!
For me, becoming a title holder was never something I imagined until I attended college. During my junior year at the University of Wisconsin - River Falls, I had the incredible opportunity to run for Miss UW–River Falls Rodeo, where I would represent not only our rodeo team but also our College of Agriculture.
That title sparked my passion for giving back to our community and inspiring others, especially those who may not come from a rodeo or agricultural background, to believe they can accomplish anything they set their minds to.
I will never be able to fully thank UW-River Falls or our rodeo team for the opportunities, experiences, community, and friendships they have given me, both during and after my time at River Falls. Getting to return and give back to the place that started it all is something I will always cherish.
Wishing the newly crowned Miss UWRF Rodeo and the UW-River Falls Rodeo Team the best of luck this year! Roll Falcons! ❤️🖤
