The 2023 West Lampeter Community Fair Queen Candidates

Nine Lampeter-Strasburg High School students will compete for the title of Queen at the 99th annual West Lampeter Community Fair on Wednesday, September 27. The contest begins at 7:30 p.m. in the show ring immediately following a 7:00 p.m. parade from the high school to the fairgrounds. 

Each candidate represents a club, sport, or extracurricular activity. They will meet individually with the Fair Queen Committee before the contest. The Fair Queen and Runner Up will receive scholarships and cash prizes for themselves and their sponsoring organizations. The reigning Queen also will represent the West Lampeter Community Fair at the PA State Fair Contest in January 2024. 

Good luck to all of the candidates!
