2022 Queen’s Letter

Dear OQHA Family,

This past year has been nothing sort of amazing. I have been fortunate enough to have been involved with OQHA since I was just a little girl.

I served on the Youth Board for several years and now I serve on the Amateur board. I was extremely honored to represent an association that has already given so much to me. I got to travel so much representing OQHA, including the AQHYA Youth World, AQHA L1 East Championship, The Little Buckeye and many other places.

The [Congress Queen] contest itself was a great experience I will never forget. I got to room with the Michigan Queen for the contest; yes imagine that Ohio and Michigan getting along. I also got to meet the other Queen contestants, all whom were fantastic young women all equally deserving of Congress Queen.

I will never be able to replicate this experience and I want to thank all those involved and those who gave me help along the way. I hope that I made my association proud and I look forward to seeing what the future holds for us all. I sincerely thank our association for making my dreams come true.

With Love,

ELLEXXAH MAXWELL

2022 Ohio Quarter Horse Association Queen
