107th Lake County Round-Up Court
Queen bailey harrington
Hello ~ I am Bailey Harrington, your 107th Lake County Round-Up Queen. I am the daughter of Abel and Krista Harrington and have a younger brother Riley, whose support has meant the world to me. The traditions and values of our community and county are deeply rooted in me as a proud fourth-generation resident of Lake County. My love of the Lake County Round-Up goes all the way back to my very first career day in kindergarten. I proudly dressed in my straw hat, cowboy boots, and my mom’s crown from 1997 when she served on court, ready to pursue a career of rodeo royalty! I was already inspired by this legacy and hoped to one day carry it on.
I graduated Lakeview Senior High School in 2025 and was actively involved in 4‑H, FFA, and the Honor Society; I played soccer, softball, and was a proud member of the ski team. Through 4-H and FFA, I showed sheep, swine, and beef, I also represented Oregon as a National 4-H delegate, earned my FFA State degree, and recently applied for my FFA American Degree. In the fall of 2025, I began at Idaho State University, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Radiographic Sciences as a member of the ISU Honors College. Currently I plan to build a career in healthcare as a radiographic technician and return to serve Lake County in that capacity.
The Lake County Round-Up is how generations of my family have spent their Labor Day weekend, not only as spectators but as presidents, royalty, and contestants. My grandmother served as queen in 1972, my mother and aunt both served as princesses, and many of my cousins are past royalty as well. In 1956 my great-grandfather, Marcus Partin, served as President and many in my family have competed in the Round-Up over the years. You will likely see some this year too!
To be here representing Lake County is more than a dream come true for a little girl but a real honor to carry on a tradition of 107 years in the county we call home. Celebrating our western heritage, serving as an ambassador for the sport and community I love is something I take great pride in and am looking forward to seeing all of you over this year!

Queen Bailey Harrington
Hello, my name is Haley Neider,
daughter of Coley and Brandi Neider, and sister to Quincie and
Corvin. I was born and raised in Lakeview, Oregon, on my family’s cow-calf ranch that feeds into
our family’s direct-sale beef and tallow company. When it comes to the Lake County Round-Up,
like many of you, it runs in my veins. Serving as royalty behind my grandma, Patty (Newton)
Mills, all of her sisters, numerous Gage cousins, was something I felt at times might only be a
dream. My journey to being on court was rocky at times but only created a stronger drive within
me to make sure I too was a part of Round-Up history- and here I am and so excited to
represent all of you!
I am a 2026 graduate of Lakeview Senior High School, where I was strongly involved in my
FFA chapter, serving as the 2025-2026 Vice President. I competed in floriculture, veterinary
science, public speaking, job interviews, and am a recipient of the Oregon FFA State Degree.
Beginning in 4th grade I showed market animals at the Lake County Fair. For my first years in
4-H, I showed market lambs switching to beef cattle my 8th grade through senior year in FFA.
My siblings and I are fortunate we get to select our market steers from our family’s own herd but
with all three of us picking steers at the same time it’s fair to say things can get a little crazy.
While in high school I played volleyball for three years, softball for three years, and was on the
rodeo team all four years competing in breakaway. I served as the High Desert Rodeo Club
Secretary for the Oregon High School Rodeo my senior year.
This fall, I will be attending Blue Mountain Community College in Pendleton, Oregon, pursuing a
degree in Ag Business while also competing on the rodeo team.
Some things I love the about the Lake County Round-Up are watching some of the most
successful professionals in rodeo compete for extra points before finals, the local barrel race
where young ladies are just getting their careers started, and those in the team branding with
their best friends, maybe not because they’’re great at laying down a good heel shot, but
because they are surrounded by the support of our community.
It is an honor to represent such an amazing community of people and knowing so many of you
is what makes this even more special. I hope to see everyone this year, at the 107th Lake
County Round-Up.
