Clinic Offered Queen Entrants

A free clinic for contestants in the Miss Rodeo El Paso contest will be held at the Indian Cliffs Guest Ranch near Fabens on Jan. 8, according to Mrs. Sandi Cardwell, contest director.

The day-long clinic will feature specialists in all phases of rodeo queen competition, with helpful hints on how to make the best possible showing in such competitions.

THEME FOR THE contest is "Be a Winner", Mrs. Cardwell said. The clinic will be open to girls who plan to enter the 1972 Miss Rodeo El Paso contest, but also will be open to 17-year-old girls who will not be eligible to enter the competition until 1973.

"We feel that the clinic can be helpful to any girl interested in rodeo, and an extra year of training might make the difference for a girl planning to enter in 1973," Mrs. Cardwell said.

The clinic, which will start at 9:30 a.m., will include sessions on the history of the Miss Rodeo El Paso and Miss Rodeo America contests, pointers on appearance, poise and personality, and will feature a style show of the latest in western wear sponsored by Tony Lama Boot Co.

THE CLINIC WILL break for a chuck wagon lunch, and the afternoon session will be devoted to horsemanship. Mrs. Cardwell said contestants will not be required to bring their own horses, since Indian Cliffs developer Dieter Gerzymisch has offered the use of the ranch horses and saddles.

Indian Cliffs Ranch is located six miles north of the Fabens intersection with Interstate highway 10.

I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth. So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her. For more information about what we're building see About AncientFaces.
