My next stop for the summer was back in Pierre, South Dakota for the Oahe Days Arts Festival. I was very excited to ride in the parade in a sponsored Ford Mustang from Capitol Motors. Although it wasn’t my typical mount I was glad it was a “mustang”. A very heartfelt thank you to Matt from Capitol Motors and his family for driving me through the parade and for the enormous amount of candy I was allowed to throw to the local children! My official Miss Rodeo South Dakota vehicle followed close behind the mustang in the parade.
Later that night I was honored to be announced as a visiting dignitary at the Troop Dedication ceremonies. It was such a memorable event to be part of a ceremony that honors the great service men and women of our country. The remainder of the weekend was spent at my Miss Rodeo South Dakota booth promoting the Casey Tibbs Rodeo Center Opening and signing autographs. Thank you to the Pierre Chamber of Commerce and Denise Gehring for inviting me to this special event and the AmericInn for providing my wonderful hotel accommodations during my time in Pierre.
