About Sara
Howdy all! My name is Sara Dobie (Coblentz). I was born and raised in the Gunnison Valley, a place that has always held my heart. Although I spent some time away, that time only deepened my appreciation for the western lifestyle and the strong sense of community that makes Gunnison so special.
First and foremost, I’m a mom to two wild and wonderful kiddos and a wife to the man I knew I was going to marry when I was just 12 years old. Professionally, I work as a nurse in the Surgical Department at Gunnison Valley Health, and in my spare time I enjoy hobby photography and staying connected to the western way of life that shaped me.
Rodeo has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up around the rodeo arena led me to compete in the rodeo queen world, where I had the honor of being crowned Cattlemen’s Days Queen in 2014. In 2016, I competed for Miss Rodeo Colorado and was honored to place as First Runner-Up. I’ve also had the opportunity to assist with the Colorado High School Rodeo media team during state finals. Through these experiences, I’ve grown both personally and professionally through public speaking, interviewing, horsemanship, and community involvement.
I am deeply passionate about helping create opportunities for the next generation of cowgirls and cowboys here in the valley. Being involved with this program allows me to give back to the community that raised me and to help build a strong foundation that will continue to grow for years to come. It’s an honor to be part of shaping the future of this program and supporting the young people who will carry these traditions forward.

About Margo
My name is Margo Schaffer and I am a co-coordinator for the Gunnison Cattlemen’s Days Rodeo Royalty. I had the honor of being the 2024 Cattlemen’s Days Rodeo Queen so I am super excited to be on the current committee, helping the current and future royalty perform their best.
I am a 21-year-old rodeo athlete raised in Gunnison, Colorado. I have been competing in barrel racing and pole bending as well as several other smaller rodeo events for about 6 years. I started my rodeo journey around age 12 doing trick-riding but moved onto barrel racing in following years.
I’m currently working as a part-time Associate Banker for Community Banks of Colorado in Crested Butte. The other half of my schedule you’ll find me training at the arena or helping my husband range riding for a cattle operation.
Given my past experience, holding a title in royalty, I am knowledgeable on what little details need attention for our queen, princess, and jr. miss position holders. A support team is the best foundation for these young ladies to be successful in their positions. I am thrilled to have this opportunity to help organize our local royalty program along with two other wonderful, talented women.
