MISS RODEO OTHELLO 2025

MaKayla Gustin
&
Halo

      Miss MaKayla Gustin, a proud native of Ephrata, Washington, is honored to serve as Miss Rodeo Othello. The 19-year-old daughter of Greg and Lacery Gustin, MaKayla is the eldest of three siblings. Her role as a big sister has instilled in her a strong sense of responsibility, compassion, and dedication—qualities she brings to every aspect of her life.
      MaKayla was raised in the heart of rural Washington, where her deep-rooted passion for agriculture and the western way of life began. Her journey with horses started at just five years old and has grown into a lifelong devotion. She has participated in 4-H, FFA, the Grant County Youth Empowerment Program (GCYEP), and proudly rides with the Stardust Cowgirls Equestrian Drill Team.
      ​Her experience with livestock is as diverse as it is impressive—from showing a 15-pound rabbit to competing with her market swine named CookieDough, and earning awards with her beloved horses, Aztac and Halo. Through over a decade of active involvement in youth agricultural programs, MaKayla has cultivated strong leadership skills, serving as Reporter, Sentinel, and Secretary in her FFA chapter. She has earned her Greenhand, Chapter, and State Degrees and is on track to receive her FFA American Degree in 2025.
MaKayla’s heart for service shines in her community involvement. She has volunteered at Veterans Day assemblies, petting zoos, agricultural education events like Ag Extravaganza, and local trunk-or-treats. She’s also been an active competitor in the Washington High School Equestrian Team and the Columbia Basin Barrel Racing Club. Her love for drill team riding taught her the importance of trust and communication between horse and rider, culminating in her role as Team Captain her senior year of high school.
      Now a student at Central Washington University, MaKayla recently completed her first year of college, pursuing a degree in Secondary Education with the goal of becoming a high school history teacher. She also dreams of training horses and continuing her involvement in rodeo for years to come.
      As Miss Rodeo Othello, MaKayla proudly represents the sport of rodeo, the agricultural community, and the values of hard work, integrity, and perseverance. She continues to ride in parades, teach young equestrians, and carry sponsor flags at PRCA rodeos including the Coulee City Last Stand Rodeo, Moses Lake Roundup, and Othello PRCA Rodeo.
      With a heart rooted in tradition and a future aimed at leadership, MaKayla Gustin is honored to serve and inspire as Miss Rodeo Othello 2025.
