Queen Jane Tanner

Jane Tanner has always been referred to as a “social butterfly” by her family and friends due to her outgoing, energetic, and sweet personality. She is a 15-year-old from Highland city and when she’s not with her heart horse Gypsy she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, singing, reading, trying new things especially different sports, and participating in her schools chamber choir. She has been riding her entire life and began her riding journey in the english world achieving a D3 level in the United States Pony Club, but ultimately found a passion for the western world. She was the 1st attendant for the Highland City Jr. Rodeo Royalty in 2023 and is excited to continue her rodeo queening journey for many years to come and bring her ”little bit of country” to Lindon.

1st Attendant Carlie Nielson

Carlie Nielson is the 3rd child of Carl and Laurie Nielson. Carlie is 16 years old, lives in Lindon and is currently a sophomore attending Pleasant Grove High school.  She is very responsible and involved in many different activities while being on High Honor Roll at school.  She enjoys playing club soccer for Utah Valley United year round.  She also loves horses and has been training a young filly mustang for the past two years. She has gained experience and knowledge while training.  Going into the arena with a plan in mind doesn’t always pan out and you have to adjust your lesson plan because every day is different and you need to find the little wins with each step.  She feels the lessons she learns while training her horses also apply to her daily life. You have to be comfortable with change and be willing to modify your plans.

2nd Attendant Jaina Johnson

Jaina Johnson is a 13-year-old from Lehi, Utah. She has many hobbies, one of them being all kinds of art from painting and drawing to even crochet. She got the amazing opportunity to represent Highland City as their 2023 Jr rodeo Queen. She’s now so grateful and excited to get the chance to be on the 2024 Lindon Rodeo Royalty. Aside from rodeo queening she has a big passion for barrel racing, and hopes to compete for Miss Teen Rodeo USA. Jaina also hopes to someday pursue a career in movie directing.  Jaina and her lovable palomino quarter horse Apollo enjoy competing in Utah county 4H shows every summer. Jaina believes that anyone can reach their dreams in life, and hopes to spread that message as a rodeo queen.
