“My favorite part was doing my dance. We practiced for a long time and then we knew the whole entire dance.”
Junior Miss Islia Rodeffer, who was also crowned the 2019 Little Miss Henderson County, is going into sixth grade at West Central and shares what she is looking forward to this week at the fair:
“Definitely not waking up at like 5 a.m., but probably hanging out with the girls.”
Reagan Spence, your 2022 Miss Henderson County Fair Queen is a Triple Crown queen. Spence is currently attending Loras College and studying psychology and neuroscience, while also playing softball, and shares what she is most excited for this fair week:
“I am most looking forward to bonding with my two queen sisters and I am also looking forward to Family Night because I love seeing all the kids that come out to the fair. They just have a blast.”
