AHSRA Class of 2026 🎓
Grace Hansen
School: Redwater School
AHSRA Rodeo District: District 2
Years with AHSRA: 4 years
Events: Barrel Racing, Pole Bending
Favourite rodeo memory:
Winning the pole bending average at the Ponoka Black Elk Fall Rodeo in 2025 with the horse I patterned myself.
Plans after high school:
Attend Concordia University of Edmonton for an arts degree in psychology, then attend the University of Alberta to pursue a PhD in law. I plan to continue my passion for rodeo alongside the amazing people I’ve met through the AHSRA.
Fun fact:
I have ridden horses my entire life but was terrified to go faster than a slow jog. I didn’t lope a horse until I was twelve.
