Announcing our 2026 Rodeo Banquet and Alumni Reunion Speaker! 🎉
Sarah J. Bohnenkamp is a leadership coach, speaker, and strategist with deep ties toagriculture, rodeo, and the development of young leaders. Known for her high energy and
straight-talk approach, she has spent more than two decades working on nearly 200 stages helping individuals and organizations communicate boldly, lead with confidence, and reject average.
A former rodeo queen, Sarah’s connection to the arena is personal and long-standing. She has worked closely with the rodeo industry for years, including with Vold Rodeo Company, has a deep appreciation for bucking horses, and recently served as a Miss Rodeo America judge. She understands firsthand the discipline, grit, and leadership demanded by rodeo athletes.
Sarah is also deeply committed to developing the next generation of agricultural leaders. Through her work with the Agricultural Future of America (AFA) and other leadership programs, she has coached and challenged college students and young professionals to step into leadership early, own their voice, and lead with courage—skills that matter just as much outside the arena as they do in it.
We're so excited to have Sarah join us and this is one you won't want to miss! RSVP here: https://form.jotform.com/253224252717150
