I am incredibly honored and excited to announce that I am officially entered for the 2027 Miss Rodeo America Pageant!

Being Miss Rodeo Texas 2026 has already been one of the greatest honors of my life. To now have the opportunity to carry the Texas name onto the national stage is something I don’t take lightly. Texas has shaped who I am, and I am proud to represent our Western heritage, agriculture, rodeo, and the incredible people who make this state so special.

I’m stepping into this opportunity with a grateful heart, big dreams, and a whole lot of Texas pride.

Thank you to everyone who has believed in me, encouraged me, and helped me get to this moment. I can’t wait to take you along for the ride!

Texas, this one’s for you. ❤️

🤠✨ 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.”
