80th annual Boys Ranch Rodeo: Faithlynn faces the rodeo

BOYS RANCH, Texas (KAMR/KCIT)-With a few rodeos under her belt Faithlynn is ready to shine as the face of the rodeo for the 80th Annual Cal Farley’s Boys Ranch Rodeo and Fall Fest.

Faithlynn and her sister went to Boys Ranch six years ago, as their grandmother was raising four grandchildren and wanted to find help for Faithlynn and younger sister.

After being at Boys Ranch, Faithlynn decided to give rodeo a try.

“I was like, Oh, this is so easy,” said Faithlynn. “Well, when I first came, we had to do time trials. Nowadays, we just make it. But when I first started, you had a time trial, and you had to get top eight or something. And my first year trying it, I remember I got it, and my sister didn’t. I felt really upset for her. But at the same time, I grew a love for rodeo, as much as I didn’t think I was going to.”

What kept Faithlynn coming back is her love for the rodeo, passion and the fun she has riding and getting to experience new things on horses. Also fueling her passion and competition is that she’ll compete against her sister Nevaeh for the first time.
