The annual Shelby County Sheriff’s Posse Rodeo will be coming to town June 5-6. 

Entries are now being accepted for the Queen, Duchess & Princess contests. The age group for Queen is 16-24, the Duchess age is 11-15 and the Princess category is 5-10.

The deadline to enter is May 29.

There will be a “Queen” clinic offered by contest coordinator, Ann Blackwell in May.  That date will be announced later.

Contestants will be required to sell raffle tickets, so early entry is encouraged.

For more information and entry forms, contact Ann Blackwell at 936-590-9126 or 936-590-1855 or email to tablackwell@yahoo.com or message on Facebook.

Ms. Blackwell says the reigning royalty have done a great job in promoting the rodeo and have, in fact, held their titles for 2 years as the contest was not held last year. She adds that a big response from local young ladies would be awesome for our rodeo. 2013-14 SCSP Rodeo Queen is Harli Joe Cowdin from Grand Cane, LA; the 2013-14 SCSP Rodeo Duchess is Emily Andrus of Carthage and the 2013-14 SCSP Rodeo Princess is Leiza Klein of Center. Watch for these young ladies as they make appearance promoting the rodeo in June.

If you would like to have them visit your business or civic group, please contact Ann Blackwell.
