The NEW MEXICO RODEO PAGEANT AND SCHOLARSHIP ASSOCIATION is organized for the purpose of conducting the Miss Rodeo New Mexico Pageant and related activities. The Association provides the opportunity for young women to participate in a positive competition which promotes our western heritage, furthers the sport of rodeo, and promotes advanced educational opportunities by providing a scholarship.
The Miss Rodeo New Mexico Pageant encourages contestants from throughout New Mexico. Titleholders include Miss Rodeo New Mexico, Teen Miss Rodeo New Mexico and Princess Miss Rodeo New Mexico. During their year-long reign these ladies travel throughout New Mexico representing the sport of rodeo.
Miss Rodeo New Mexico travels to events throughout the United States as she represents the Land of Enchantment. She works closely with professional rodeos to keep our western heritage alive and vibrant. As she travels she prepares to compete for the Miss Rodeo America title. That competition is held each year in Las Vegas and includes horsemanship, appearance, stage presence, personality and current events. The winner travels the world serving as a Goodwill Ambassador for the sport of rodeo.
