🤠✨ 2026 Contestant Highlight Series ✨🤠
Meet contestant Callie Welty, who is competing for the title of Miss Rodeo Texas!
“The iconic Texas-shaped crown represents far more than a title as it stands for patriotism, camaraderie, and Western elegance. Miss Rodeo Texas is an ambassador for rodeo, agriculture, and the Western way of life, embodying professionalism, authenticity, and impact.
I have dedicated my life to honing horsemanship skills, mastering the art of public speaking, and embracing Western values to reflect these qualities. As someone with hearing loss, a reality shared by five percent of the world, I strive to represent inclusivity.
At an autograph signing, a young girl with hearing aids hugged me after seeing mine, reminding me of the power in representation and visibility. These moments fuel my passion to advocate for others. I am committed to using my platform to uplift and inspire future generations.
As Miss Rodeo Texas, I will honor the legacy of passion and purpose carried by those who have held the title before me.”
