They are seeking applications for the 2022 Junior Rodeo Princess.

And that crowd pleaser is during the Mineral County Fair in Superior Friday, August 5 and Saturday, August 6 at the fairgrounds.
The winning candidate for Junior Rodeo Princess will receive $50 cash and a $50 gift certificate to Mountain West Co-Op (CENEX) to help defray the cost of her outfit. Plus, a custom handmade sash from world renowned sash maker Wendy Russ. Both the Rodeo Princess and Rodeo Queen will receive genuine silver crowns, made by Montana Silversmiths, donated by Lincolns Silver Dollar Bar, in Haugan, Montana. The Rodeo Princess this year, was the Junior Rodeo last year. And the Rodeo Queen this year, was the Rodeo Princess last year. It’s a three-year commitment as they simply move up the ladder and look for a new Junior Rodeo Princess every year.
