Fourteen Fairfield County teens are competing for the title of 2021 Fairfield County Junior Fair Queen. The young ladies, all of whom participate in Fairfield County FFA Chapters and/or 4-H Clubs, were interviewed on Tuesday, September 21, 2021, by a panel of three community leaders who evaluated the candidates on a variety of factors including: 4‑H/FFA activities, school and community activities and poise.
The 2021 Queen will be crowned along with two attendants by the 2020 Fairfield County Jr. Fair Queen, Hannah Henry, on Saturday, October 9 at 7 p.m. during the Fairfield County Junior Fair Panorama. The event will also be streamed live through services by Innerphase Video Productions.
