2024 Queen: Hannah Chambers
Hello, my name is Hannah Chambers, and I am your 2024 Southeast Weld County Fair Queen! I am 16 years old and I am a Senior at Weld Central High School. I have grown up in the Southeast Weld County community with my mom Kara, and younger brother Hayden, and have been attending this fair ever since I can remember. I have been showing Arabian horses sine I was two years old and have always had a passion for the agricultural community. While showing horses I have received many awards including state awards, multiple grand and reserve grand championships, and countless other placings. I now have continued my journey with horses and have found a passion for training them as well. I have been in FFA for four years now where I actively compete in horse judging and received fourth in the state last year. Along with competing in horse judging, I have also competed in quiz bowl, parliamentary procedure, and veterinary science. I have received both my greenhand and chapter degrees. In addition to being active in FFA, I have also been on the Weld Central Volleyball team for the past four years. I am also a member of Student Council and the National Honor Society. After graduating high school, I plan to go to college to be a mixed practice veterinarian. I would also like to continue my passion for horses by joining a collegiate equestrian team while earning my degree. I am extremely excited to share my love for agriculture with the community and am honored to be your Southeast Weld County Fair and Rodeo Queen the year!

2024 Lady-In-Waiting: Audrey Koehn
Hello, my name is Audrey Koehn, and I am your 2024 Southeast Weld County Fair and Rodeo Lady-in-Waiting. I am 15 years old and am a sophomore at Weld Central High School. I’m from the Hudson area and I enjoy the many traditions that my small town offers. My parents names are Tiffany and Mark, and my two older sisters names are Tessa and Bonnie. My family moved up from Texas and brought Registered Boer Goats to this area in 2008. I have grown up going to this fair every year and have very fond memories of this place. I now participate in this fair, showing horses and making leather craft projects. I love watching the rodeo and am excited it is now PRCA sanctioned. I love to ride my horses and I am learning to rope. I’m a member of FFA and on the horse judging team. Last year I placed gold at state as a freshman and I plan to try just as hard this year. I am president of the Keene 4-H Boosters and I enjoy participating in fundraisers and community projects with my 4-H group. After graduating from Weld Central, I plan on going to college in Texas to become a nurse just like my mom. I want to rodeo professionally as well. I am so blessed to be your 2024-2025 royalty. I thank God everyday for the opportunities I get to be an ambassador for our lovely small town. Good luck to the 2024 Southeast Weld County Fair and Rodeo Participants! God Bless you.
