PAST QUEEnS: Rodeo
parade is set for
Saturday, June 13
Continued from page 3
Phillips, who played in Super
Bowl XXXV for the New
York Giants.
“I have been trying to get
him to bring his family to
the rodeo for so many years,
and this year they’re finally
coming,” she said. “I am so
happy.”
Active members of the
rodeo association will also
be present as former queens.
Amorita (Patterson) Anstett,
1998, is the chairperson of
this queen committee. She
presented the plan to the rodeo
board of directors in 2014 for
this anniversary year. Yvette
Moore, the rodeo’s book-
keeper, was the 1972 queen
and is part of the committee.
The committee of five
was able to contact 56
former queens and princess.
Fourteen of them currently
live in Central Oregon. With
an affirmative response of 50
percent, the queen commit-
tee feels more successful than
they expected to be.
“Out of 121 past royalty
in the Sisters Rodeo legacy,
it has been fun being able
to locate and connect with
so many of them. I know
that they are very excited to
be remembered during this
75th celebration for their
individual years of service,”
said Anstett. “I am very
thankful for all of the help so
many people and members of
the association have provided
in this adventure.”
After the parade, the
queens will be honored in
the Grand Entry before the
Saturday afternoon rodeo per-
formance along with visiting
queens and current Queen
Mikaela Koellermeier. They
will then be guests of the
rodeo for that performance,
where they were once active
as cowgirl/queens, herding
steers and calves out of the
arena during timed events.
Sisters Rodeo will begin
June 10 with Xtreme Bulls,
followed by four rodeo per-
formances June 12-14. For
