So last night, February 3, 2024 at the downtown Hilton in Columbus, Ohio, this happened. Sidney Hawk was honored with the position of OQHA, Ohio Quarter Horse Association Queen for 2024.

Shown in picture at left is Sidney Hawk, 2024 OQHA queen, Ashton Snow, 2023 OQHA queen and Quarter Horse Congress Queen, Jessica Blevins.

We cannot begin to name all the people who made this award possible, but a few names stick out. Thank you, Kristine Nagy, for all the dedication you put into the actual queen coordination for OQHA and for guiding Sidney through her first banquet and award ceremony. Will certainly be a moment in her life she will never forget, 

Thank you, Ashton for your kind words and help with the details from your experiences in the last year, as queen yourself. 

Thank your Cynthia and Greg Baughman for your participation in this great honor and the work you do with the OQHA events at Creekside and duties beyond.

Here's wishing 2024 OQHA continues to be such a great organization for the American Quarter Horse.

This beautiful silver cowgirl hat accessory was created specifically for the 2024 OQHA queen and presented to Sidney.

This matching 2024 silver Molly's belt buckle was also custom made to commemerate her 2024 queen position.

Sidney received this beautiful crown and jeweled sash as part of her award for being crowned OQHA Queen for 2024.
