Letter to the Editor

Being Vernon County Youth Fair princess is an honor

Saturday, July 24, 2010

Dear Editor,

I would like to take this opportunity to say what an honor it was to be crowned the 2010 Vernon County Youth Fair Princess. As you may already know, the Vernon County Youth Fair is one of the biggest and best county fairs in the state of Missouri. A big part of what makes it a successful fair is the support of our local community.

During my experience running for the VCYF princess I got to meet girls I didn't know. We had a social at Nevada Regional Medical Center's Moore-Few community room. We had pizza and had an opportunity to answer mock interview questions. The judging was held at Cottey College. I was nervous that night but it was very exciting to get to take part in this event at Cottey. It is a beautiful campus.

There are numerous businesses and individuals that make the royalty a success. I thank each of them for this opportunity.

If you, or anyone reading this, has not had a chance to attend the annual Vernon County Youth Fair, I invite you to come out in July 2011 and see what I am talking about.

I am proud to say I am from Vernon County and what a wonderful place it is!

Sincerely,

Kaylee Farmer

2010 Vernon County Youth Fair Princess
