LINCOLN -- Lil' Miss Contestant Emmalee Parker is the 5-year-old daughter of Bryce and Jessie Parker, of Farmington.

Last year Emma attended Kindergarten at Bob Folsom Elementary. She has two brothers, Ethan and Mason. Ethan won the 2017 Lil' Mister title with Emma competing for Lil' Miss.

She enters the Lincoln Riding Club pageant again this year to celebrate the 65th annual Lincoln Rodeo, bolstered by an expanded worldview with the birth of baby brother, Mason.

Emma is a member of the Cove Creek Clever Clovers 4-H Club. She enjoys raising and showing pigs from her Pa's farm. Last year she won Grand Champion Market Hog at the Washington County Fair. Emma also loves tumbling and attends classes once a week. When Emma grows up she wants to be a teacher just like her Aunt Maegan.

The Lincoln Riding Club will host the 2018 Lil' Miss and Lil' Mister contest starting at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 8, in front of the bandstand set up for the street dance on the Lincoln Square. After the contest, the street dance will be held from 8-11 p.m. The 2018 Lincoln Rodeo is Thursday, Aug. 9, through Saturday, Aug. 11, at the Lincoln Riding Club Arena.
