We have quite the shout out to make for our incredible Queen Miss Olivia Zuber 🤍🤍
Not only are you one incredible person but your showmanship is truly inspiring and truly moving in every aspect!
Evergreen rodeo wants to wish you a huge congratulations! After 9 years of showing you have done the western heritage and all of agriculture more than proud!
Please take a second to read what showing has ment to our Queen and the importance of agriculture and 4-H in her life!
“My final year as a 4-H member has officially come to an end, and it is hard to put into words what these past nine years have meant to me. 4-H has been so much more than livestock shows, ribbons, and banners—it has been a journey of growth, perseverance, responsibility, and lifelong friendships. Every project, every early morning, every late night in the barn, and every moment spent caring for my animals has helped shape the person I am today.
Throughout my years in 4-H, I have learned the importance of remaining humble both in and out of the show ring. I have celebrated incredible victories, and I have also experienced difficult losses. While the wins were exciting, it was often the setbacks that taught me the greatest lessons. Each success gave me confidence, and each challenge taught me resilience, sportsmanship, and the determination to come back stronger. Every experience, whether good or bad, has played an important role in my growth as both a showman and as a person.
I owe so much to the incredible mentors, volunteers, leaders, fellow exhibitors, and supporters who invested their time, knowledge, and encouragement in me throughout this journey. Thank you for believing in me, challenging me to improve, and teaching me that true success is measured not only by the banners we win but by the character we build. Every lesson, every word of advice, and every handshake in the show ring has left a lasting impact on my life.
As I close this chapter, I do so with a heart full of gratitude for every animal that carried me into the ring, every friendship that was formed in the barn, and every opportunity 4-H gave me to grow as a leader. The lessons I have learned through this organization will stay with me for the rest of my life.
Although my time as a 4-H member has come to an end, my passion for agriculture has only grown stronger. I am committed to carrying these experiences forward as I continue advocating for youth involvement in agriculture. I hope to encourage the next generation to discover the same confidence, responsibility, and sense of community that 4-H has given me. The show ring may be behind me, but the values, memories, and lifelong lessons I have gained will continue to guide me wherever life leads.
Thank you, 4-H, for nine unforgettable years. This may be the end of one chapter, but it is only the beginning of the next.”
