Rodeo Queen
Meet Emily Furniss:
Rodeo Queen 2022 & 2023
Growing up in the Northern Territory, Emily was introduced to rodeo through the local Top End Drum Runners. After completing her Bachelor of Outdoor and Environmental Education, she now lives and works throughout the Victorian alps educating and leading school students through backcountry and wilderness areas.
​
She is passionate about horses, mountain biking, wildflowers and being a part of the Merrijig and Mansfield communities.
It 's a pleasure to call the Victorian high country my home. Being rodeo queen is an amazing opportunity for me to get involved in the Mansfield and Merrijig communities and be a positive role model to younger ladies.
