DAYTON, Iowa—A Labor Day Holiday Tradition, the Annual Dayton Championship Rodeo will begin Friday. The PRCA Championship Rodeo will begin each evening at 7:00 and Monday at 1:30. The 2024 Dayton Championship Rodeo Senior Queen is Kalie Buenting and the Junior Queen is Kyla Egli. They will be joined this year by several visiting queens including  Miss Rodeo Iowa – Lillie Longhorn, Miss Teen Rodeo Iowa – Lily Schulenburg, and Miss Sidney, IA Rodeo – Jessica Meseck. This year, the queens and drill team can sign autographs AFTER the rodeo. We will be set up everyday on top of the hill at a long, white table. Autographs are free to all.
