The Box Butte County Fair queen was crowned on Wednesday in Hemingford, and 17-year-old Brookelynn Warner was named fair queen. She is the daughter of Kim Warner, and she was sponsored by Mobius Communications. "I'm so amazingly grateful, I always dreamed and looked up to the queens and here I am."

Barbie Applegarth is the Coordinator of the Box Butte County Fair Contest, and she commented on how the event went this year. "It's always a great event, always very well attended. I've been a part of this since I was the fair queen 41 years ago and my daughters have both been royalty so it's something that is really special to me," Applegarth said. "To see these girls come out, and get in front of the crowd, perform, talk, and model, they are all winners."

11 young women participated in this year’s event with Warner earning a $1,000 scholarship.  Ms. Congeniality was Reese Swanson, 2nd attendant was Carlie Schneider&nbsp;who earned a $700 scholarship and 1st attendant was Kalli Bridge who was awarded an $800 scholarship. &nbsp;
