The judges went outside Idaho last week to select the 2007-08
Owyhee County Fair and Rodeo Queen. Randi Turner of Ontario,
Ore., became the 63rd woman to be crowned queen. She was
announced as the winner during Friday’s rodeo performance.
The daughter of Tate and Lisa Turner, Randi Turner beat
out Dixie Kent of Marsing and Jonnie Burns of Wilder to succeed
Danielle Kidder as queen. Turner also was named Miss Congeniality.
Kent was first runner-up. The daughter of Lucky and Bonnie
Kent, Dixie won the horsemanship and speech portions of the
competition. She rode Kizma during the horsemanship contest.
Jonnie S. Burns, the daughter of Tony and Kelly Burns, was
second runner-up. The interview and speech
portions of the contest were held Aug. 6 at the Tumbleweed
Theatre at the Owyhee County Fairgrounds in Homedale.
Turner now is eligible to compete in the Miss Rodeo Idaho
contest. She will reign over next year’s Owyhee County Rodeo.
