I can't believe how fast this past year has flown by, it has been a year I will never forget! I am so grateful to have had the privilege to travel across Alberta and into Washington and Utah representing the Bowden AG society and my beautiful home town of Bowden. My journey has been filled with endless memories, laughs and a whole lot of heart. From the early parade mornings to late nights spent at events it was all worth every moment.
A huge thank you to my family for being my number 1 supporters! Thank you to my parents for being there for anything I've needed. Whether it was cleaning my tack after a muddy rodeo to helping me with my horse or even a kick in the butt to get me moving, they were there. A special shoutout to my Uncle Richard and Aunt Sandy for all their encouragement and how I could forget taking on all my crazy stencil ideas!
Thank you to my big bay roan gelding Dusty for being my partner throughout my whole year! Even though we had our moments (including me landing in the dirt a couple times this spring) I couldn't have done it without him!
To all my sponsors, Thank you very much for all your endless support! You helped make my year incredible and I couldn't have done it without you!
To the AG society, Thank you for giving me the opportunity to represent our small but mighty committee and rodeo, this has been an experience I will never forget!
As I hang up my sash, I am so incredibly grateful for this experience and everyone who helped make it unforgettable. Thank you for allowing my dreams to come to reality!
For the very last time, officially signing off. 💕
With love,
2024 Bowden Daze Rodeo Queen
