Jenielle Kohl
2018 Miss Laramie Jubilee  | Laramie, WY

​Born to a family with strong rodeo roots, twenty-one-year-old Jenielle has been involved with horses and rodeo since she got her first horse Mac, when she was three.  She named him Mac after her favorite food, Mac & Cheese and they entered their first rodeo the summer she was four.  She and Mac won several buckles and All-Around awards in youth rodeos.  Later she participated in WHSRA and is a current member of the Central Rocky Mountain region of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association.
Her grandparents, Gary and Vonda Dee Walker met at a rodeo, Gary went to the NHSRA finals in all three rough stock events, and they later started Rodeo Bible Camp Mission as well as Walker Rodeo Company.  Her mother, Adeline Walker Kohl was a breakaway roper.  Jenielle's fondest childhood memories are riding with her grandparents and sister Daycia to check pastures, hunting or just taking a picnic lunch to explore old homesteads.
Jenielle graduated Phi Theta Kappa from Eastern Wyoming College where she earned her Associates in Veterinary Technology and certification as a Vet Assistant.  She plans to further her education by earning a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine.

Her employment opportunities involving horses, include working for Ken McNabb training horses and assisting with pack trips in various mountain ranges throughout her beautiful state of Wyoming.
​

While horses and animals are a vital part of who she is, Jenielle's first love is her relationship with Jesus and sharing Him with others.

Bailey McLean
Miss KrossFire Equine Enterprises | Sheridan, WY

​Bailey McLean is a 23-year-old Sheridan, Wyoming native. She is the daughter of Doug and Jami McLean. She graduated with honors from Sheridan High School in 2013 and completed her Associate of Science degree in Business at Sheridan College, where she was a member of Phi Theta Kappa, the world’s largest and most prestigious honor society for two-year college students. Bailey is employed by Sheridan Travel and Tourism where she has the opportunity to share the treasures of her hometown with travelers from around the world every day.
Bailey was not raised in a ‘horse family’, but her work ethic and persuasive smile convinced her grandparents to get her a horse. Bailey competed in barrel racing at the local Cowgirl’s Rodeo and in both Western and English riding events in the Sheridan County Fair. Bailey proudly carries the M&M flag, the Sheridan WYO Rodeo’s most generous sponsor, during the rodeo every year.
 
Bailey is grateful for her family. She’s fortunate to have extended family members who have shared their knowledge, time and experience to make this lifestyle a reality. Even those who don’t understand her passion for horses support her unceasingly.
 
Bailey has proudly served in several positions including Blue Sky Saddle Club Sr. Princess, Sheridan WYO Rodeo Senior Princess, Chadron State College Rodeo Queen, Sheridan WYO Rodeo Queen, and is honored to represent KrossFire Counseling and Equine Enterprises today. She looks forward to continuing to represent the sport of rodeo and the wonderful state of Wyoming.

Hannah Ostheimer
Miss Sheridan WYO Rodeo | Sheridan, WY

Miss Sheridan WYO Rodeo, Hannah Ostheimer, is the 21-year-old daughter of Gib and Debbie Ostheimer. Hannah became competitively involved in 4-H in her early years, winning state titles with her horses and knitting projects, and is a volunteer in the horse project. The countless hours spent in the barn were rewarded in 2016, as she won the prestigious AQHYA show jumping World Championship.
​Setting high expectations and valuing education is a priority for Hannah, graduating high school as Valedictorian at age 16, Casper College with an Associate degree in Agriculture with distinction, and 2018 magna cum laude graduate from the University of Wyoming with a bachelor degree in Biology.  Hannah intends to pursue a doctorate degree in animal science focusing on equine nutrition.  While going to school, Hannah worked for equine barns in Oregon and Arizona, assisted veterinarians as a tech, Jan Pamela Polo Ranch in their equine reproduction facility, and an internship with the UW Research and Extension Center.
​
Hannah felt it was of great importance to use her title, and the abilities God has blessed her with, to not only to promote rodeo and the western way of life, but also to give back to her community through public service projects in her hometown of Sheridan.  Honored to represent the Sheridan WYO Rodeo, Hannah expresses her sincere gratitude to the WYO Rodeo Board, WYO Rodeo Queen Board, her sponsors, her community, and especially her parents for their generous support.

The Miss Rodeo Wyoming pageant is judged in three categories, all of which are equal: horsemanship, personality, and appearance. Other awards based on total highest scores are photogenic, speech, and written test.  Sales achievement will receive an award, but is not counted in the total combined points.  Category awards that are voted on by peers include congeniality and scrapbook.  An award will be given to the 2nd attendant and 1st attendant.
Miss Rodeo Wyoming will receive an engraved trophy saddle from the Wyoming State Fair, breast collar (Shackelford Sales), a scholarship, buckle (Wyoming State Fair), jade crown (traveling crown), banners, briefcase, spurs (Tom Balding), chaps (Tim Bath), a saddle pad (King’s and Shackelford Sales), hat cans, banner pin/pendant, and other prizes.  A $2000 scholarship will be awarded to Miss Rodeo Wyoming to be honored at the school of the winner’s choice. The 1st runner-up will receive a $500 scholarship.
