This past Wednesday the Wright County Fair was just gettting started. My parents and I ventrued to Eagle Grove which is where the Wright County Fairgrounds are. Eagle Grove is right off of highway 17 in North central Iowa. I was asked to be in their parade that kicks off the fair in the evening, and take part in the crowning of the 2011 Wright County Fair Queen. I was able spend time with the former Wright County Fair Queen, her name is Jamie, she is such a sweetheart. It was great seeing her and catching up a little bit. I was also able to walk around and check out the fairgrounds and livestock that had already been checked in. Wright County has a great fairgrounds and it is very well put together. It was very neat because one of the ladies in charge of the crowning was Lisa Hill. Lisa was the 1988-89 Iowa State Fair Queen. She was a riot to work with and a great lady, I can only imagine how great of a queen she was! To beable to meet former Iowa State Fair Queens and chat with them is an honor, I look up to them and know that they used to be in my shoes. I am able to hear what I have to look forward to in the future and their stories from being queen. The panel of judges chose a very well-rounded young lady, she will represent her county well and bring many positives to the fair. My evening at the Wright County Fair was a great experience and I was so glad that I was able to be apart of it. I would like to Thank Trica Rosendahl and the Wright County Fairboard for asking me to make an appearance at their fair.
God Bless,
2010 Iowa State Fair Queen
