✨ Memorial Week Recap ✨
🇺🇸 Old Fort Days Rodeo 🇺🇸
What an incredible week at the Old Fort Days Rodeo! We kicked the week off by carrying the Arkansas flag in the Memorial Day Parade. I was honored to take part in grand entry each night where I carried both the American and Arkansas flags. I also had the special opportunity to present the American flag during the National Anthem on Wednesday night. Throughout the week, Falyn and I helped push cattle for each performance and enjoyed meeting fans while signing autographs.
I am so grateful to the Old Fort Days RodeoCommittee for allowing me to be part of such a meaningful Memorial Day tradition.
🐎 Crossett PRCA Rodeo 🐎
On Thursday, I traveled to Crossett for the speech and modeling portion of the Miss Crossett PRCA Competition and attended the rodeo that evening. All of the competitors did a great job! I had the opportunity to ride in the grand entry and later take part in a queen lap during the performance. Congratulations to this year’s winners! Thank you to the Crossett PRCA Rodeo Committee and Rodeo Queen Directors for the warm welcome and for including me in your rodeo family.
🤍 Thank You🤍
A huge thank you to both rodeo committees, directors, and everyone who supports and keeps these traditions alive. It’s always an honor to represent rodeo and our western way of life during such a meaningful week.
Grow with Grit,
