Allamakee County Fair Royalty ...

Coronation of the 2022 Allamakee County Fair Royalty took place Tuesday, July 19 at the Allamakee County Fairgrounds Pavilion in Waukon, kicking off the 169th Allamakee County Fair. Five area young ladies were vying for this year’s Fair Queen crown, which was bestowed upon Rhianna Jones (fourth from left in photo above), daughter of Eric and Liz Jones of Lansing. Cheyanne Troendle (third from left in photo above), daughter of Darrell and Amy Troendle of Waterville, was crowned Allamakee County Fair Princess. All five of this year’s candidates served as the 2022 Allamakee County Fair Royalty Team throughout this year’s Fair.
