The dust is finally settling after the 2027 Miss Rodeo Oklahoma Pageant, and what an amazing week it was! 🤍🐴👑
From the first day to the final moments, it was packed with horsemanship, interviews, learning experiences, and so many memories that will last a long time. Every day brought something new, and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it.
One of the best parts was getting to spend the week with such an incredible group of girls who all share a love for rodeo and the western way of life. The friendships, encouragement, and support for each other made the whole experience even more special.
A huge thank you goes out to everyone who helped make the pageant run so smoothly—organizers, volunteers, judges, sponsors, and everyone behind the scenes. It takes so many dedicated people to make a week like this possible, and it truly shows how special the Miss Rodeo Oklahoma family is.
So thankful for the memories made and already looking forward to what’s next! 💐✨

What a special weekend at the 90th Hugo PRCA Rodeo! ❤️🤠
This rodeo will always hold a special place in my heart as I officially passed down my title as the 2025 Hugo PRCA Rodeo Princess. It has been an incredible honor to represent this rodeo, and I am so excited to congratulate my friend, Lyla, on being crowned the 2026 Hugo PRCA Rodeo Princess! 👑✨ I know she will do an amazing job representing the Hugo rodeo family.
This weekend was also extra special because I got to use my horse, Scooby, for his very first rodeo and parade. He handled all the excitement like a seasoned pro and did such a great job! From the parade route to the rodeo grounds, he took everything in stride, and I couldn't be prouder of him. 🐴❤️
Thank you to everyone who helped make the 90th Hugo PRCA Rodeo such a memorable celebration. Here's to honoring the traditions of the past, celebrating 90 years of rodeo history, and cheering on the next generation of rodeo royalty.
Congratulations again, Lyla! I can't wait to see all that this year has in store for you. ❤️🤠

What a fun-filled weekend in Hugo! ❤️🤠
One of the highlights was visiting the Endangered Ark Foundation, a private non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring the future of Asian elephants in North America while providing a retirement ranch for former circus elephants. Getting to meet Kelly the Elephant was an unforgettable experience and a wonderful opportunity to learn more about these amazing animals. 🐘
We also had a blast at Jay Hodge Dodge hosting a stick horse rodeo for the kids! Watching their excitement, enthusiasm, and rodeo spirit was so much fun. It was great to see so many young cowboys and cowgirls enjoying the rodeo experience. 🐴🤠
A very special thank you goes to Melissa Drinkard for her outstanding hospitality throughout the weekend. From start to finish, she made everyone feel welcome and at home. It is easy to see why the Hugo PRCA Rodeo has been recognized multiple times as the Best Host Rodeo at the Miss Rodeo Oklahoma Gala. The kindness, hard work, and dedication of the Hugo rodeo family truly make this event special.
Thank you, Hugo, for another memorable weekend filled with friendship, fun, and rodeo memories! ❤️
