Following in her brother’s footsteps, Micah Fox is C.T. Fox’s sister,
who was recently one of Parker
County Today’s bachelor candidates competing for Bachelor of the
50
Year. Although he didn’t win the title,
his sister is planning on picking up
where he left off and continuing to
raise funds for the Weatherford/Parker
County Animal Shelter.
Micah is a senior marketing student at Tarleton State University. This
semester will be different for her;
however, as it is the first one that she
won’t be participating in collegiate
rodeos. Her event was roping breakaway calves, and although she could
have entered the arena for one more
year, she wanted to concentrate on
her last semester of school.
She will be entering the workforce
in December and according to her,
“I am open to whatever happens. I
enjoyed all of my marketing classes.
You get to meet new people and
publicize [their events].” Helping
the animal shelter is a natural choice
for her, she said, as she was “raised
outside with all kinds of dogs, cats,
horses and cows.”
Although she is almost finished
with school, she looks fondly on her
time at Tarleton.
“I really enjoyed the traditions at
Tarleton, like the football team, the
baseball team, the rodeo team. It was
an honor to be on the rodeo team,”
she said.
Micah said she is small in stature,
but she does drive a big dually pickup
truck. Asked what she likes most
about her truck, she said, “I like that
it’s mine. It’s big and I feel safe in it
because I’m not very big.”
Being a bachelorette will help her
re-acclimate to the Weatherford community.
“I’m looking forward to getting
my name out there and getting to
meet a different group of people that I
haven’t met before,” she said.
She has been away from Weatherford for the past three years, but was
formerly a student at Weatherford
College.
“I’m finished with school in December,” she said.
Finance and accounting are two
of the last classes she has to take, so
hopefully those classes will help as
she counts the money raised for the
animals needing forever homes.
