👑✨ Queen’s Luncheon at the Du Quoin State Fair ✨👑

👑 Our Miss & Jr. Miss Queens were out and about again, this time enjoying the Annual Kirchenfest in Highland, IL! 🎡

The girls had a great time taking advantage of the beautiful weather, visiting with people throughout the community, and even joining in on a few games — heels and all! 👠😂

It looked like Kirchenfest had another great turnout this year, and our Queens loved being part of all the fun!

Another great day of making memories, meeting new faces, and representing the Madison County Fair! 👑❤️✨

👑 Our Queens Out & About! 👑

Two of our Queens enjoyed a wonderful evening in the community on Thursday! Unfortunately, our Jr. Miss Reese wasn’t able to join them due to illness. We sure missed her and hope she’s feeling much better today! ♥️

Their evening began at Business After Hours, where they had the opportunity to mingle with familiar faces, meet some new ones, and enjoy a beautiful charcuterie spread and refreshments. We always appreciate the chance to connect with the wonderful people and businesses that make our communities so special!

From there, they made a quick stop at the Highland Square, where plenty of people were braving the summer heat and settling in for an evening of live music. ☀️🎶

Our Queens are looking forward to many more opportunities to get out, meet new people, support local events, and represent our pageant throughout the surrounding communities. 👑

Next up — Kirchenfest in Highland this weekend! 🎉 We hear there will be amazing food, great entertainment, and plenty of fun for everyone. Be sure to keep an eye out for some of our former Queens taking the stage with their dance groups, too! 💃👑

We hope to see lots of familiar — and new — faces out enjoying everything the weekend has to offer! ♥️

👑 Our Madison County Fair Queens Out in the Community! 👑

It was another fun-filled weekend for our Queens as they continued making their way around Madison County and supporting some wonderful local events! ♥️

On Friday evening, Madison County Fair Queen Aleigha stopped by the Edwardsville Rotary Club Criterium to say hello, visit with those in attendance, and show her support for the community. The weekend event featured great food, drinks, and plenty of excitement, wrapping up on Saturday with high-speed bicycle racing and free kids’ races! 🚴‍♀️🏁 It was also the second-to-last race in the Illinois Cup Series, making for an exciting weekend in Edwardsville!

Then on Sunday, August 16, Aleigha and Kate attended the 34th Annual Edwardsville D.A.R.E. Car Show. ☀️🚗 It may have been a hot one, but they had a wonderful time checking out all of the unique cars, trucks, and tractors on display while supporting a great cause — the Edwardsville D.A.R.E. Program.

We loved having our Queens out and about, supporting local organizations, meeting new faces, and making memories throughout Madison County. 👑♥️

Thank you to everyone who welcomed them and helped make both events such an enjoyable experience!

A delayed post but they deserve the recognition. A couple of Wednesdays ago, our Queens all had dinner at Alfonzo’s! The food was obviously delicious but the best part… meeting Tony and his son, the owner! There is no way to describe the type of people they are, they welcome everyone in as their own and make them feel at home right in their restaurant. So let this be your sign… take a trip to Alfonzo’s! Trust us when we say it’s worth it, from the tasty food to the at home feeling as soon as you walk in! Thank you to Alfonzo’s for welcoming us with open arms. We will DEFINITELY be back!🥗😋🍝

Miss Aleigha got to hang out with the Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois! From making a build a bear buddy, to painting rocks(with a crown obviously), to seeing the largest collection of Girl Scout cookies! Thank you so much for the hospitality and we can’t wait for next time!💚👑🍪

County Fair Day✨🎡🐷 Yesterday our queens spent the day at the Illinois State Fair! From our endless golf cart rides, meeting fellow queens, pictures with the governor, to visiting the FFA barn yard was amazing. They loved meeting all of their fellow royalty and emma violet ! Seeing the youth experts of the farm animals was so exciting. And of course, we enjoyed LOTS of fair food.

YOU still have 9 more days to enjoy the Illinois State Fair !
