A huge thank you to Nick & Jennifer Cameron and Jared & Hailie Hillock for sponsoring the custom 2026 Royalty Chaps and Purses for our Chief Joseph Days Rodeo Royalty Court. These chaps and purses are more than just part of the outfit—they’re keepsakes that represent a year of hard work, memories, and western tradition.

We’re incredibly grateful for everything these families do for our Royalty Court and for Chief Joseph Days Rodeo.

A cowboy hat is more than just part of the outfit—it’s a piece of western tradition.

Thank you to Pendleton Hat Company for supporting our 2026 Chief Joseph Days Rodeo Royalty Court and providing hats for our Queen and Princesses as they represent Chief Joseph Days throughout the year.

There’s a lot that goes into representing Chief Joseph Days—and it’s the details that make it special.

Thank you to BBQ Leather Company for crafting the custom halters and jewelry boxes for our 2026 Royalty Court. These pieces aren’t just functional—they’re something the girls will carry with them all year as they represent Chief Joseph Days and the western way of life.

We appreciate the time, craftsmanship, and support that went into creating something truly one of a kind.

A huge thank you to Nick Perkins Trucking for being the Premier Sponsor of the 2026 Chief Joseph Days Rodeo Royalty Court.

Their support helps make this program possible for our Queen and Princesses throughout the year as they travel, represent Chief Joseph Days Rodeo, and carry on the traditions of the western way of life.

Support like this goes far beyond sponsorships. It’s an investment in the next generation, our community, and the future of rodeo tradition here in Wallowa County.

We’re proud to have their support behind the 2026 Royalty Court.

Thank you for standing behind these young women and the traditions that make Chief Joseph Days what it is.

If you weren’t at Coronation on Saturday, we’ve got one more announcement to share.

Please join us in congratulating Steve Zollman, your 2026 Chief Joseph Days Rodeo Grand Marshal.

Steve’s connection to Chief Joseph Days goes back decades—from helping as a kid on the grounds to serving as parade chairman and rodeo chairman. Along the way, he helped shape traditions that are still part of the week today, including the Cowboy Breakfast and even what we now know as the Thunder Room.

We’re proud to recognize him during our 80th Anniversary.

Your 2026 Chief Joseph Days Rodeo Royalty 👑

Queen Ella Hillock
Princess Aspen Cameron

This title isn’t given—it’s earned.

Months of preparation. Interviews. Horsemanship. Public speaking. Ticket sales—and they rose to the top.

We’re fortunate to have them representing Chief Joseph Days, our community, and the traditions behind it.
