The Garfield County Fair & Rodeo royalty program is dedicated to provide an opportunity for young women to be spokespersons for the Garfield County Fair & Rodeo, the sport of rodeo, the western way of life, and their community of Garfield County. The royalty program utilizes teamwork, organizational skills, public speaking, community service, and relationships to prepare participants in becoming future community leaders.
2023 Queen – Tabor Tiffany
My name is Tabor Tiffany, and I am the 2023 queen. I have lived in Garfield County all my life, and I am a senior at Rifle High School. I have always had a passion for horses, I started taking riding lessons. When I was about 12 years old, I got my first horse, Richie. Currently I have three horses, Roxy, Denny, and Meatloaf. I compete in high school rodeo in barrels, poles, and breakaway roping. I am also in 4-H and FFA. When I was younger, I used to look up to the girls in royalty and I wanted to be just like them. I am honored to be this year’s queen and I can’t wait to represent Garfield County. I look forward to seeing everyone this year.
2023 Jr. Queen – Isabella Prough
My name is Isabella Prough, and it is my privilege as Jr. Queen to represent the western lifestyle and traditions of the cowboys and cowgirls who carry on the rodeo. I am a 15-year-old freshman and have been riding horses for about 5 years now. In this my third year of 4-H, I will be showing swine and poultry. The Fair is the highlight of the year for me, and I have always wanted to be a part of it and the great tradition the Royalty program represents. I look forward to being a role model, making new memories, meeting new people, and representing Garfield County.
