| Hail to our new Queen Ali Kratzer! |
Hello Everyone!
I am so privileged and honored to be representing Interstate Games,
Patterned Speed Horse Association, and Western Horsemen of Oregon
as your 2011 Interstate Queen.
I appreciate the chance to give back to an organization that has given
so much to so many over the years…..first and foremost; the tradition
of good, clean, family fun, while competing at a championship show
with our beloved horses. And I am grateful for everything I learned
from participating in the Interstate Queen Contest this past year. From
getting over my shyness of approaching strangers for sponsorships, to
stepping far outside my comfort zone and singing a country song in
front of my closest friends and family, to creating program ads and all
the other hard work in between; this opportunity taught me valuable
life lessons I will never forget. To all those young ladies out there who
are considering running for Queen, I encourage you whole heartily to
pursue this rewarding goal. It is an amazing experience you will
cherish forever.
Along with my parents, Russ and Kathy of Maple Valley, I have been
active in PSHA for over 10 years. I love all that this organization has
taught me about horses, friends, responsibility and sportsmanship; to
name a few. As an 18 year old freshman at Eastern Washington
University and because of my love for children, I am currently
pursuing a nursing degree – my first step to becoming a pediatric
nurse.
Tex and I will be riding together this summer and can’t wait to see
you at a show. Thank you everyone for your support; I realize I wouldn’
t be representing you today if you hadn’t been there for me along this
amazing journey.
Have a great time riding; be safe and have fun.
Love, Queen Ali Kratzer
