Meet the 2024-2025 Queen
Carli Jo Krosch
Hello, everyone, my name is Carli Jo Krosch. I am the daughter of Amy and Justin Jimenez. I am 17 years old and just recently graduated from Declo high school. My hobbies are queening, barrel racing, pole bending, goat tying, spending time with my horses and friends and family. I have been rodeoing ever since I could remember, and it has basically been my life for the past 14 years. I am truly so blessed to be a part of a family who supports me in the rodeo industry. I have been a part of queen competitions since I was 13 years old, and it has taught me so much on how to public speak and building up my Horsemen skills and also teaching me how to advocate for the great sport of rodeo. I want to encourage all the girls out there to compete in these queen competitions because it truly does teach you so much and it is one of the greatest things I have been blessed with. Good luck to all the girls who are competing. I want to thank everyone for supporting me these past few years, you have no idea how much I appreciate it.
