WALLOWA COUNTY – (Release from Chief Joseph Days Rodeo) Chief Joseph Days (CJD) is proud to introduce its 2025 Royalty Court. Following a successful tryout on a beautiful sunny day in Wallowa County, three outstanding young women have been selected to represent the annual rodeo event.

The 2025 Royalty Court members are:

Jadeyn Perin, an 18-year-old senior at Joseph Charter School

Livia DeMelo, a 15-year-old sophomore at Joseph Charter School

Tylee Evans, a 16-year-old Junior at Enterprise High School

These remarkable young women each bring a unique blend of skills, including public speaking, horseback riding, and academic excellence. Their upcoming year will be full of exciting responsibilities as they serve as ambassadors for Chief Joseph Days.

In March, the Royalty Court will kick off their ticket sales campaign. Their posters will be visible around the community and across social media, offering a prime opportunity to purchase general admission tickets for the 2025 rodeo. Last year, general admission tickets were sold out by Saturday, so the public is encouraged to buy from the court before tickets become available online in April.

The announcement of the Queen and Princesses will take place during the annual CJD Coronation in April, with the exact date to be announced soon!

Chief Joseph Days Rodeo has long been a treasured event in Wallowa County, drawing visitors from across the region to celebrate Western heritage, horsemanship, and community spirit. With the announcement of the 2025 Royalty Court, excitement is already building for another memorable year.
