2009 Queen Elle Wallace |
|
When asked, what she
wants to be out of anything, Elle Wallace would reply, without hesitation,
“A Rodeo Queen”. That dream came true January 25th as former
Queen Laura Lowe handed over the title of Fort Dalles Riders Association
Queen to Elle. Elle and her horse Fadra
teamed up three years ago, when Elle began riding. Since then, they have
been busy competing in various horse shows and playdays. Last fall Elle started barrel
racing with the Olheiser’s mare Meg and won over $500 in cash, plus many
prizes. As you can imagine,
Elle’s love of barrel racing has taken firm root. Other great highlights of the
summer were riding in the local parades and participating on The Fort
Dalles Pro Rodeo Drill Team. Elle has also been
involved in 4-H for the past three years. She showed sheep, modeled,
sewed, and competed in showing and gaming events with her horse. Elle
really enjoys the week she spends at the
fair. During the summer when she
is not riding or taking care of her horse you will find her at the river
boating with her parents David and Lori and older brother
Grayson. Elle knows being queen for The Fort Dalles Riders Association is no small task and is looking forward to the challenge. With the support of her family and wonderful friends like the Olheisers’, Elle will put her best boot forward to represent The Fort Dalles Riders Association, as their 2009 Queen.
