Junior Rodeo Princess applications open
The rodeo at the Mineral County Fair began 42 years ago and was a huge community project with the Superior Lions leading the charge.
A few years later, it became the Go for the Gold Rodeo with an ounce of gold added to the purse each year if a cowboy or cowgirl didn’t win, as there were certain conditions. The price of gold has skyrocketed since then and changes have been made, but the purse still grows as only one person has been the winner.
The rodeo remains a huge part of the fair and the Superior Lions remain as the stewards organizing almost every aspect yearly and one of their favorite parts is announcing the Rodeo Junior Princess. This is a three-year process because the following year, the junior princess becomes the rodeo princess and in the third year she becomes the rodeo queen.
