Promoting Iowa's Rich Western Heritage
Fort Madison's Bob Britton was instrumental in bringing the Miss Rodeo Iowa pageant to the Tri-State Rodeo. For many years Bob served as the emcee for the pageant and helped with fundraising and other events. Bob has also made many trips to Las Vegas to support the reigning Miss Rodeo Iowa's quest for the title of Miss Rodeo America. Upon Bob's "retirement" as emcee for the pageant, the Board of Directors thought it fitting to name the pageant speech awards in his honor. The following are the young women who have been honored with this special recognition.
