Miss Rodeo Washington rides, eyes national title
RITZVILLE — Lexy Hibbs is on a mission. On Sunday, Hibbs stood underneath the high ceiling of the indoor riding facility at the Iron Legacy Ranch south of Ritzville. People are arriving with their horses, tying them up and getting them ready. Hibbs, Miss Rodeo Washington, is looking to ride as many of them as she can as part of a fundraiser for breast cancer as well as the upcoming Miss Rodeo America competition in Las Vegas in November. “So, today I am doing the Pink 50 Horse Challenge,” she said. “It’s for all of the state contestants.”
