opportunities for all. If you have never attended this Pageant the
following information about each event may make them easier to get to (maps
of the Las Vegas Strip) and understand what is happening. The public, family and friends,
can only attend certain events. (Tickets

America Association)
The HORSEMANSHIP COMPETITION
is free to the public and is held at the Excalibur
casino in the Excalibur King Arthur’s Arena, Monday, December 3, 8:30 a.m.
This is a great arena for the competition however, it can get a little
chilly so you might want to bring along a light jacket or
sweater.
The GET ACQUAINTED PARTY is held in the
Savoy Room at the Flamingo Hilton Hotel, Monday, December 3, 8:00
p.m. and admission is $20.00. The music and dance floor make for a
swinging good time. Check out last

$15.00 at the door / session. The Speeches are held at the Flamingo Hotel, Wednesday,
December 5, Thursday, December 6, Friday, December 7, 8:00 a.m. These
speeches can be some of the most fact filled stories that you may marvel
at the women who wrote them. Each contestant has 3 minutes in
which to deliver a speech about their state or a rodeo
topic. Public speaking is a large part of a Rodeo
Queen's duties and this is a wonderful opportunity for each of the
contestants to use their talents in this area. This is a great way to
spend an hour.
