Bremer County and Clayton County

This past Thursday August 4th my parents and I attended the Bremer County Fair. Bremer County is in North East Iowa. The fair is held in Waverly. This was about a 2 and half hour drive for us. I was asked to come for the afternoon just to check out the fair and communicate with fair goers. I did a variety of activities while I was there. Those activities included laser tag, eating pie and ice cream, attending the rabbit show, and learned new ways to help the environment. Those are just a few things that I was able to do while at the Bremer County Fair. I had a great escort around the fair and tour guide, shout out to Jill. Thank you! I really enjoyed being at the Bremer County Fair. I met many wonderful people such as the fair board members and the 2011 Bremer County Fair Queen. She is a great gal and I know that she has done a great job for Bremer County and will continue to do a great job representing Bremer County at the Iowa State Fair Queen competition. I really enjoyed my afternoon and evening at the Bremer County Fair. To Jill and the rest of the Bremer County Fairboard members thank you for having me attend the 2011 Bremer County Fair.
The next day I was asked to attend the Clayton County Fair which is just on east of Bremer County and is actually on the border of Wisconsin. It was about a 4 and half hour drive from Knoxville. It was one of    our longer drives this summer. I was asked to come to the Clayton County Fair during the late afternoon and evening for the beef show. I was so excited to be able to catch a steer show from a county that is very far away from where I live, I will probably never have the opportunity to see the Clayton County beef show in the next 10 years. I was impressed with the quality of beef that the 4-H and FFA exhibitors showed at Clayton County. Clayton County was my last fair of the summer. It was great that I got to end my summer travels with a beef show as it is one of my loves. My parents and I were treated absolutely wonderful by the fairboard members of the Clayton County Fair. Their fairgrounds is a great facility and has a lot of support that makes it so terrific. I couldn't have asked for a better fair to end my summer travels as the 2010 Iowa State Fair Queen. Thank you to the Clayton County fairboard for having me at the 2011 Clayton County Fair.
I would like to thank everyone again for having me at their fairs this summer. I had a wonderful summer full of travels around the state of Iowa making different appearances as the 2010 Iowa State Fair Queen. This summer could have not have been better. I can't believe a year has gone by already as I will be crowning the 2011 Iowa State Fair Queen this coming Saturday on the Bill Riley Stage at the Iowa State Fair at 7 o'clock. Time really does fly by.
Hope all is well with everyone and hope to see you all at the Iowa State Fair!

God Bless,
2010 Iowa State Fair Queen

  1. Iowa State couldn't have picked a better gal for their 2010 State Fair Queen. You have made all of us in Knoxville so proud of you. So glad you had this opportunity. Wishing you continued blessings in the future. Thank you for showing the state what a classy gal we have in Knoxville.
