Former Cochrane Lions Rodeo Queen Breanna Correia will be wearing a new crown in 2025.
Last night, she was named the 2025 Stampede Princess following a close competition between seven contestants.
Breanna became well known in the Cochrane area while serving as Lions Rodeo Queen for nearly three years. In that time, she made hundreds of appearances to represent the Lions and serve as an unofficial ambassador for Cochrane in her travels. She has continued to mentor the queens that have followed and regularly makes appearances in Cochrane.
Breanna is a 23-year-old communications student at Mount Royal University and her passion for agriculture began at the age of nine when she joined her local 4-H club. Today, she balances her studies with coaching multiple local 4-H clubs and spending as much time outside as possible.
As an aspiring professional communicator, Breanna is passionate about connecting with people and the art of storytelling, particularly through visual media. Growing up in Calgary, she has always held a special connection to the Calgary Stampede and is thrilled to share her passion with others.
