The Wright County Fair board is currently receiving applications for this year’s Fair Queen Pageant. The Queen will receive a $500 scholarship from Humboldt Mutual Insurance Association in addition to gifts and a trip to the Iowa State Fair Queen contest sponsored by the Wright County Fair Board and Humboldt Mutual Insurance Association. The contest is open to Wright County females that are at least 16 years of age but not more than 21 years of age on August 13th this year. It is not necessary for applicants to be 4-H or FFA members. The judging, selection and coronation will all take place on Wednesday, July 8th – the first day of this year’s fair.
