Pageant Updates

Check out the website http://dcfpageant.clubspaces.com
We will soon have our new crown and buckle in! Thanks to Lonestar sliversmith for their beautiful work and to the Dallas Co. Fairboard for the sponsoring of the crown!
The buckle is paid by the pageant funds which for as of now is sponsored by; Fuller Standard, Adel IA , Recce Livestock, Adel IA, and the clinic fees! Thanks to all!
We also almost have the rulebook completed, after this is revised and edited and the Rodeo dates are set, entry packets will be available.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Watch the website and blog because we are in the planning to have a rodeo queen/cowgirl queen horsemanship clinic in the spring. We'll have to see how the weather works for us, but hopefully in April or EARLY May we will be holding a DAY LONG clinic to help learn everything for proper flag carring to placement in the arena to patterns!!! You will be allowed to bring your horse. The instructors will also be horse back. We are hoping to tape the whole thing a then you will have a visual aid! It will most likely be limited to 10-15 spots so if you are interested at all, e-mail me as soon as possible. It will be a beginners clinic, mainly for girls that have not had rodeo queen experience and would like some before their first or second pageant!!!!
Thanks so much!

1st Annual Clinic

Our first annual Clinic went great! We had 4 girls able to attend, all in which I hope will be running for our title. Miss Rodeo AK-SAR-BEN, Lindsey Ahrenholtz and Miss Teen Rodeo Iowa, Rachel Burton were there. Both looking beautiful and very knowledgeable. Between Lindsey and I Rachel could hardly get a word in edge wise. All the girls asked good questions and learned very quickly. For all the girls, if there are any more questions feel free to e-mail any of the queens or me! Thank you!
