Last Day of the Huntingdon County Fair
I can't believe that the fair is over already! It went by way too fast!! Sorry I didn't get to post yesterday it was a long and busy day! Amanda, Megan, Emily (Huntingdon County Dairy Princess)and I had to get up super early to attend the Grange Breakfast. We got to enjoy a delicious meal of various casseroles, muffins, fruit and homemade cinnamon rolls. The cinnamon rolls were the best! The Grange then held a ceremony to honor the recipients of the community service award. This year's recipients are our rabbit superintendents, Donald and Helen Harnish Sr. This couple have been involved with the fair for 42 years and have been a major part of the Huntingdon County Fair. Congratulations Donald and Helen! I got to spend the afternoon with my fair queen moms, my court and the Junior Ambassadors at the wing-off. I was lucky enough to judge the contest with Colette, Jamie Hicks, Logan Booher, and Jeff Metz and decide which business had the best hot, B-B-Q and specialty wings. Cassville Country Store, Woody's BBQ, CC'S Wings and Things and Fat Freddie's were our four participants. Congratulations to all the winners! I would like to send a major thank you out to Woody's and Fat Freddie's for donating their prize money back to the Fair Queen Program! Megan and I got to attend the Demolition Derby and present the award for best appearance. I got to spend the last hour at the fair office drawing for the cash prizes! Congratulations to all cash prize winners! Before I conclude my last post from the Huntingdon County Fair, I would like to say that this past week was amazing! I have made many memories that will last a lifetime! Like Saturday, I fell off the scale at weigh-in and fell in manure but oh well! Sunday, I was crowned the new queen and I still can't tell you how I exactly feel! I had a blast showing with all the other exhibitors and watching the Premier Showman Contest. Milking a cow is something that I won't forget since my cow didn't want milked and jumped every time I touched her. During the Public Speaking Contest, Tyler and I made the most of our last public speaking contest. We made faces and tried making each other laugh or smile during the speeches! Little things like these memories make us who we are and is what brings us back together every year for the Huntingdon County Fair! So you do you come back every year? The memories that you made this year, I hope are what bring you back August 9-15 to the 2015 Huntingdon County Fair!
