Kyznie Thomas, 18, of Checotah, has been chosen Queen of the 2025 Eufaula Chamber of Commerce Rodeo.

“I have ridden horses all my life,” she said. “Training and riding barrel and rope horses – I was born into horses, and they have been my passion all along.”

When she isn’t working with her horses, she is pursuing another passion – photography.

“I have started an amazing photography business, taking photos of any and everything I get the opportunity to.”

“I own two personal horses and buy, train and sell horses every so often.

“I am very passionate about my job and my animals and I am very excited to be queen this year.”
