2024 Evanston Cowboy Days Royalty

2024 Evanston Cowboy Days Queen - Terra Hicken

Hello everyone! My name is Terra Hicken from Heber City, Utah. My parents are Dave and Tanya Hicken. I've always had a passion for rodeo whether it is being a rodeo queen or a contestant at rodeos. In high school, I was a part of the Wasatch Rodeo Team for four years, as well as being the Vice President my senior year. I competed in barrel racing, pole bending, breakaway roping, goat tying, and the queen contest.

After high school, I attended Utah Valley University for two years and graduated with an Associate’s degree in Business Management in the fall of 2023. Then, I got the opportunity to attend Mountainland Technical College in their limited x-ray technician program and graduated with my certificate in Limited X-ray Technology in May of 2024.

Recently, my journey took an exciting turn when I was honored to be crowned the 2024 Evanston Cowboy Days Queen. Reflecting on my experience at last year's Cowboy Days Rodeo, I was captivated by the atmosphere of the rodeo and the people involved, which ignited my determination to pursue the title of queen this year. It's been a dream come true to blend my love for rodeo with this prestigious role, and I'm eagerly looking forward to celebrating and promoting the rich traditions of cowboy culture at this year’s cowboy days celebration.
