Miss Rodeo Ogden 2025 – Ada Poulter 👑

Ada Poulter is proud to represent Ogden Pioneer Days, a rodeo she’s loved since she was a little girl. Raised in rural Northern Utah she is the daughter of Shannon Poulter and Kristi & Bill Fronk, Ada has spent her life in the saddle, shaped by rodeo and the values it teaches—grit, grace, and gratitude.

She’s currently studying at Utah State University, where she will graduate with a Bachelors in Finance as a CFP with an emphasis in Agricultural Economics in 2026, and plans to use her degree to give back to the ag and equine industries that built her.

Wearing the Miss Rodeo Ogden crown is more than a dream come true—it’s a responsibility she holds with pride. This year, Ada is ready to honor the brand and build the legacy of Ogden Pioneer Days while celebrating freedom, heritage, and the Western way of life.

Rodeo timing wasn't always electronic! Before the "electric eye" technology, judges used handheld stopwatches, and results could vary by tenths of a second between officials. Today's infrared timing systems measure down to the thousandth of a second! ⏱️
