Coronation Fundraisers Scheduled
|
Each of the 2022 Miss Rodeo Oklahoma titleholders--Miss, Teen and Princess--hold events to celebrate their titles with friends, families and supporters. Importantly, these events have a dual purpose of raising funds to help support their travels as rodeo ambassadors. Additionally, a small portion of the auction proceeds contribute to the Oklahoma Rodeo Pageants Council, which provides opportunities for young women of Oklahoma each year. These events are open to the public. Reservations or RSVPs help greatly for planning. They are a super way to get involved in Oklahoma's rodeo pageant community. Check back for details on the next events.

In Loving Memory of Jack J. Wells, 1942-2019
|
Western artist Jack J. Wells and his wife, Alice, have been longtime supporters of the Miss Rodeo Oklahoma program, providing Jack's prints for the annual raffle and creating an original framed portrait for each Miss Rodeo Oklahoma. Jack even walked away with the crown once as "Mister ROdeo Oklahoma." Most importantly, they encouraged contestants, supported the organization and its volunteers and became our friends. Donations in Jack's memory may be designated to the ORPC and will be applied toward a Jack J. Wells scholarship.
