Rodeo pageant unfolds bloom of youth

The Crosby Fair & Rodeo held their annual Rodeo Pageant featuring cowboys, cowgirls, rodeo dress and rodeo clowns of kids aged 0-8 in twelve categories last Saturday. This year Rachel Hicks has taken the reins, but Lanette Armstrong (having lead multiple successful pageants) was still present and helpful as boys and girls paraded before a substantial crowd to show their charisma.

Each of the 58 contestants deservedly received a trophy for their participation. Twelve first place contestants get to ride inside the Rock’n C Arena on both nights of this year’s Crosby Fair & Rodeo and the Crosby Fair & Rodeo Parade to be held June 5.

The Crosby Fair & Rodeo hosts the Cook-Off on June 4 through 6. The annual Livestock Auction on June 10. The Crosby Fair & Rodeo is June 11 and 12. Read Southall Band plays June 11 in concert. Lanco plays June 12 in concert. For tickets visit CrosbyRodeo.com Box Office.
