Crowned Junior Miss Corn Days

Bailey Shafer, 11-year-old daughter of Bill and Beth Shafer of Waukon, was crowned Junior Miss Corn Days during a ceremony in front of Stranded Memories in Waukon Friday, August 15 as part of this year's expanded Waukon Corn Days celebration. Contest organizer Jean Brink said that contestants were judged not on their appearance, but on "what's in your heart and in your head." Additional photos from the newly expanded Corn Days activities and events over the weekend can be found in this week's print and e-editions as well as in our online photo galleries.
