We are proud to announce the 2026 St. Paul Rodeo Court!


Queen Morgan Cuff, Princess Evelyn Johnson, and Princess Annika Hedin will represent the St. Paul Rodeo as we celebrate our 90th this June 30–July 4, 2026.

Princess Evelyn Johnson is the 20-year-old daughter of Emily and Jay Johnson from Sherwood, Oregon. She is a 2024 graduate of Sherwood High School and is currently attending Clackamas Community College to pursue a career as a Dental Assistant. Evelyn was a member of Sherwood FFA and served as an officer her senior year. She has shown livestock at the county fair and traveled Oregon competing in countless career and leadership development events, alongside her FFA chapter. Growing up Evelyn has always had a true passion for raising and showing horses. She has shown in 4-H, the American Quarter Horse Association, Western State Stock Horse, and the Northwest Reined Cow Horse Association. She traveled the region competing in reining, cutting, and boxing events. Evelyn will be riding her 13-year-old sorrel quarter horse mare “Layla”. Evelyn is so grateful for the opportunity to represent the 90^th annual St. Paul Rodeo.

Queen Morgan Cuff is the 21-year-old daughter of Tony and Kathy Cuff. She is a fourth-generation grass seed and hazelnut farmer from Woodburn, Oregon. Morgan graduated from Blanchet Catholic High School in 2022. Her dedication and love for horses started at a young age and has never stopped. Morgan was a nine-year member of the Saddle Slapper Marion County 4-H Club, winning numerous county and state high-point awards. She also excelled on the Oregon High School Equestrian Team, earning many awards, including the District Versatility Buckle and the Champion of the PNWIC Regional Cow Sorting. With a passion for farming, Morgan will graduate from Oregon State University in 2026 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Science and a minor in Crop Science. She has been a field scout for the past three summers and is on track to become an agronomist in the Willamette Valley. Morgan is a member of the Oregon State Stock Horse Team, continuing her drive to compete at the college level. When Morgan isn’t helping with seasonal harvests on the farm or tending to her horses, she enjoys the outdoors with her family, which includes camping, fishing, game nights, and watching her brother Dylan on the baseball field. The St. Paul Rodeo has been a yearly tradition for Morgan, starting at a young age watching from the stands, but in 2024, Morgan was honored to serve as the 2024 St. Paul Rodeo Princess. With love for this rodeo and community, Morgan and her 6-year-old bay roan quarter horse, Ty, are honored to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the St. Paul Rodeo with all of you!

Princess Annika Hedin is the 17-year-old daughter of Gary and Stephanie Hedin of Gaston, Oregon. A Senior at Gaston High School, she has played a key role in launching the school’s first-ever FFA chapter and currently serves as the Chapter’s President. In addition, Annika was also the first in her chapter to raise a market animal and compete at FFA State with her horse in equitation and gaming events. Her passion for agriculture and animal science extends beyond the classroom. She is an active member of her county’s horse 4-H program and competed with her school’s Oregon High School Equestrian Team (OHSET), specializing in gaming and western performance events. This fall, Annika will travel to Kentucky to represent Oregon as part of the state’s 4-H Horse Bowl Team at the Eastern National 4-H Horse Round-Up. Annika currently has three horses. She shares a strong bond with her 13-year-old paint mare, Fergie, who she has used for roping and cow events as well as rodeo grand entries and parades. She recently welcomed home Hoot, a 18-year-old gelding seasoned in cattle work, and competes in gaming events with her POA, Rio. Outside the barn, Annika is a self-taught balloon artist bringing joy to children with her creations. She also enjoys babysitting, fishing, camping, and giving back to her community whenever she can. After high school, Annika plans to join the Navy ROTC program at Oregon State University, where she will study astrophysics.
