The 15th Annual Wild West Rodeo Queen Clinic was held in North Platte, Nebraska on March 10 & 11, 2007 at Becky’s Hall of Celebrations.
Twenty-three girls and twelve mothers or coaches were registered for the Clinic. The main clinician for this year’s Clinic was Miss Rodeo America 2006, Amanda Jenkins, from Gilbert, Arizona. Other clinicians were: Dr. Ron Moorhead, equine veterinarian from Ogallala, Nebraska; Paul Cleveland, professional rodeo cowboy, rodeo judge and queen pageant judge (including the Miss Rodeo America pageant) from Keystone, Nebraska; Brent
Larreau, rodeo cowboy and rodeo stock owner and contractor from Hershey, Nebraska; and Lori Bortner, Miss Rodeo Nebraska 2002 and Miss Rodeo America 2003. Local area people who coordinated informative sessions for the Clinic were: Bob Smeltzer and MRNA members Sally
Haytorn-Mayden, Sherri Dodson, Pat Rice, Ashley Rice, Sharon
Halligan, Tricia Schaffer, and Mardee Swanson. The MRNA Queen Pageant Committee served delicious breakfasts and lunches both days with the help of the Buffalo Bill Rodeo Committee, who served pancakes and sausages on Saturday morning. Marlene Smeltzer did a wonderful job of coordinating the Cowgirl Mercantile clothing swap which was attended by many-both shoppers and vendors.
A big “THANK YOU” from the Clinic Committee to everyone who attended the 2007 Clinic and to all who assisted in any way (including all of you who helped set up and/or tear down the clothing swap site and the clinic site and to Lindy and Miranda Dodson for the music on Sunday morning). |

The 14th Annual Rodeo Queen Clinic was held in March in North Platte. Twenty-six young ladies from 3 states attended the informative and educational rodeo queen’s clinic. Selena
Ulch, Miss Rodeo America 2005 shared her experiences and gave instruction on the 3 main categories of competition. Here comes “the judge” was a mock interview with a panel of Nebraska’s best; MRNA members with years of experience judging national, state and local pageants. If you missed it – I’m sorry! A rodeo knowledge “Quiz Bowl” challenged each ones knowledge and a session on “Personal Safety and Precautions” gave them safety tips. 2006 goes down in the history books as a great success! Thank you to Peggy Moorhead, Clinic Chairman, the committee and all the attendees, both girls and their Mom’s/coaches. Mark your calendar for March 10-11, 2007 and we’ll see ya’ at the 15th Annual Wild West Rodeo Queen Clinic!
