Long before the first horse enters the arena and long after the last event has ended, rodeo royalty continues the work of preserving western heritage. They are storytellers, educators, horsewomen, and ambassadors who dedicate themselves to promoting the traditions, values, and spirit of rodeo. Through their service, they connect generations, encourage young riders, and remind us that the legacy of the American West is carried not only through competition but through leadership, kindness, and example. Running Horse Ranch is proud to celebrate the women who represent the heart of rodeo and inspire those who will one day follow in their footsteps.
