THE campaign has begun for this year’s Rodeo Queen, with Warwick local Taylah Gibson throwing her hat into the ring.
“I’m a first-time Warwick Rodeo Queen entrant and am quite excited to participate, as I really enjoyed the show girl quest I did earlier this year for Warwick as it was a great confidence booster and I want to continually build on that,” she said.
She will be holding a fund-raiser trail ride on 15 August. It will begin at Stock Route, just outside of Warwick, at Ruth McGill’s at 8am for a 9am ride out, and costs $40.
Taylah is a local girl and has been in Warwick for 10 years.
“I love the country,” she said.
“I will be attending a Rodeo Queen boot camp on 16 August, which is open to anyone and will help prepare with public speaking, etiquette, how to dress and horsemanship components.”
For more information on the fund-raiser call Taylah on 0408 333 182 or visit the Rodeo Heritage Centre to make a booking.
This year’s Rodeo Queen will be revealed in a presentation evening on 10 October.
