Hi! My name is Evie Braun, and I am your 2026 Miss Rodeo Oklahoma Princess! As one of the youngest girls to wear this crown, at 11 years old, I proudly represent my hometown of Blanchard, OK. My love for horses started at the age of 2, when I had my first pony ride; from there I was hooked! By the age of 4, I started riding lessons. By the age of 5, I got my first horse. Shortly after getting my first horse, I started playdays, 4-H, competitive riding, and my favorite, rodeo queening. Though I don't come from a rodeo family, I have a strong passion for horses and animals that led to a love of the western way of life. With this passion I felt a calling to be part of something bigger--sharing my love of all things western, God, family, and the American way of life. Through hard work, grit, and determination I got to where I am now, your 2026 Miss Rodeo Oklahoma Princess.
