2025 Queen: Audrey Koehn
Hello, my name is Audrey Koehn and I am your 2025 Southeast Weld County Fair and Rodeo Queen! I am 17 years old and am a junior at Weld Central High School. I’m from the Hudson area and I enjoy the many traditions that my small town offers. I have grown up going to the 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 to ride my horses, especially when I team rope in the heelers position. I’m an officer of FFA and on the horse judging team. This year I placed Gold at state as well as my freshman year. I am secretary for 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 2025 Southeast Weld County Fair and Rodeo participants! God Bless you.

2025 Lady-In-Waiting: Anastyn Perez
Hi, my name is Anastyn Perez and I am honored to serve as the SEWC Fair and Rodeo Lady-in-Waiting! I’m incredibly thankful for this opportunity to represent both my fair and the amazing community that surrounds it. I’m a student at Weld Central High School and just completed my sophomore year. Through 4-H, I show horses, goats, and pigs. I’m also involved in horse judging with Weld County/ In addition, I’m deeply engaged in FFA, where I serve as an officer and actively compete in events. Outside of school and fair activities, I love barrel racing and spending quality time with my horses. Over the past few months, I’ve had the privilege of representing our fair at the National Western Stock Show, Meet and Greets, and several parades as Lady-In-Waiting. I’ve met so many wonderful people and have gained incredible new experiences along the way. I’m beyond grateful for the unwavering support from my family – especially my mom, sister, and stepdad- as well as my friends, and the community members. I’m so excited for my upcoming year as Queen and can’t wait for all the memories still to come!
