Mrs. Caribou County, Jessica Thurman, to Compete for Mrs. Idaho

Jessica Thurman, the reigning Mrs. Caribou County, is proud to announce her participation in the upcoming Mrs. Idaho Pageant. Born and raised in Soda Springs, Jessica is the second of four children and has always considered this beautiful community her lifelong home. She graduated from North Gem High School in Bancroft before moving to Utah to attend meat cutting school—a unique and memorable experience that gave her skills she still enjoys using today.

Following her training, Jessica began a decade-long career in the dental field, holding a variety of roles including general dental assistant, oral and maxillofacial surgery assistant, office manager, and dental software coordinator.

Today, Jessica is married to her best friend, and together they are raising their two wonderful children. She currently serves as the Recreation Director for the City of Soda Springs—a role she loves because it allows her to create fun and meaningful opportunities for kids, and local families. Her dedication to community service extends even further: Jessica is a member of the Caribou County Search and Rescue team, serves as a driver for the county EMS team as she works toward her EMT certification, and also sits on the Bancroft City Council, where she enjoys helping guide the future of her hometown.

Outside of work and service, Jessica loves swimming, riding horses, spending time outdoors, watching and playing hockey, and making memories with her family.

Jessica is honored to represent Caribou County and would love the opportunity to make appearances at events, community gatherings, or local celebrations.
