The 2024 Class of Inductees for the National Cowgirls Museum and Hall of Fame has been Announced

Meet the newest National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame Inductees.

The honor of being inducted into the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame is not one that many women get to experience. They recently announced their 2024 inductees and there are some names that you may recongize.

Beth Cross is the co-founder of not only one of the Western industry’s most recongizned brands, but a world renowned brand, Ariat. She revolutionized the technology that goes into riding boots to leave her mark on the world.

JJ Hampton is one cowgirl who paved the way for women, specifically breakaway ropers, in professional rodeo. She earned 17 World Titles while doing so.

Kaila Mussell is the first cowgirl to compete against men in the saddle bronc riding since the 1940’s and although she does not compete as her career, she says it is her passion.

The Pack Horse Library Project took place during the Great Depression when women were hired as librarians to deliver books horseback throughout eastern Kentucky.

This is an elite honor as the Hall of Fame only consists of 253 women. The newest inductees will be honored on November 12 in Fort Worth, Texas.
