Our very own conveyancing paralegal, Ashleigh Grant, was crowned 2016 Warwick Rodeo Queen in the lead up to the 2016 Warwick Rodeo National Finals and Prydes Easifeed Warwick Gold Cup Campdraft last October.
In her role as the Warwick Rodeo Queen, Ashleigh is the face of the Warwick Rodeo & Gold Cup Campdraft and promotes the Rodeo in the Southern Downs and beyond, visiting our schools, shopping centres and various horse events as well as having the opportunity to travel around the Country and to two major international events at the Canadian Finals Rodeo in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and the “Daddy of ‘em All!” in Cheyenne, Wyoming, USA.
Ashleigh has truly flourished in this role and has really made the most of the opportunities this role has given her to advance her public speaking skills and personal development.
As the current Warwick Rodeo Queen Ashleigh is also given the opportunity to run for the highly sort after title of Miss Rodeo Australia. The successful Miss Rodeo Australia then goes on to participate and promote Rodeos throughout Australia, America and Canada. We wish Ashleigh the best of luck in her pursuit of that title.
