The very first Alaska State Fair in 1936 featured the crowning of the Fair Queen \u2013 and we\u2019re bringing back this royal tradition with a modern twist at the 2018 Fair!<\/p>\n

Join us at the coronation event on Thursday, August 23, at 7 p.m. on the Colony Stage, where we\u2019ll crown the queen and select other members of the Fair royal court, including two princesses and a cultural ambassador. Fairgoers also have the opportunity to vote for their favorite candidate<\/a> to be honored with the People\u2019s Choice Award!<\/p>\n

Eight young Alaskan women are vying for the Fair Queen title this year. Meet this year\u2019s candidates:<\/p>\n

Bianca Temple:<\/h4>\n

\u201cSince 1936 the Alaska State Fair has become the highlight of every year. Becoming the Alaska State Fair Queen would not only recreate history, but it would be an amazing opportunity to represent a staple of Alaskan tradition. My compassion, ambition and outgoing personality would allow me to share these experiences and fulfill any duties put in front of me.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"\" <\/strong><\/p>\n

Briana Thibodeaux:<\/h4>\n

\u201cI have lived in Alaska for 11 years. I grew up in a military family, which has enhanced my ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships with others. I enjoy the Alaska State Fair and I am involved in my community, especially with Anchorage youth.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"\" <\/strong><\/p>\n

D\u2019 nayla Alston:<\/h4>\n

\u201cWith my emotional intelligence, community involvement, and love for all things Alaska, I can show our community the best of our fair and what it\u2019s like to make memories here. I want to represent our state fair by sharing the amazing opportunities and traditions to everyone in our wonderful state. I wish to fulfill this opportunity and go beyond expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"\" <\/strong><\/p>\n

Emilee Bartman:<\/h4>\n

\u201cI believe I would make a wonderful Alaska State Fair Queen and Cultural Ambassador. I love Alaska with my whole soul. I want my son to see the beauty in Alaska and its people as I do. I enjoy speaking with people about many things, but Alaska is always a type on heart and head.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>

<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hannah Noble:<\/h4>\n

\u201cI am Alaska, I am proud of our state, I believe beauty is in the eye of the beholder. We aren\u2019t all cookie cutter. I embrace all the beauty around me. I\u2019m bilingual in Yupik, I love Alaska and all it offers.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Samantha Wanner:<\/h4>\n

\u201cI should be the next Alaska State Fair Queen because I would love the ability to represent this beautiful state. Alaska is my home, and I am so proud to be a part of these communities here. Being the Alaska State Fair Queen would give myself the platform to strengthen my outreach into continuing to make our home state so great. This opportunity to serve Alaska and be a good-will ambassador is something I have always wanted to pursue.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Storm Young:<\/h4>\n

\u201cWith my love for pageantry and community involvement, I could show our state what the fair has to offer. I would invite others to take part in not only the fair, but also next year\u2019s pageant. Also, I loved the West Virginia State fair in my home state, it was always my favorite part of the summer. I made so many great memories there and meet so many amazing people. Now, that I am here in my new home state that is on the other side of the US. I want to continue to spread the laugher and memories that will last a life-time.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"\" <\/strong><\/p>\n

Tala Ianu:<\/h4>\n

\u201cNo other event symbolizes our great state and who we are as Alaskans quite like the Alaska State Fair. I recognize that as Alaska State Fair Queen I will serve as ambassador to all Alaskans and to the world at large. I am committed to serving at the highest level as State Fair Queen; welcoming all groups, families, and individuals to join us in this annual celebration of who we are as Alaskans.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>

<\/div>\n

The winners will be selected by a panel of five judges, who will score the candidates on appearance, communication, community involvement, resume, Fair costume and introduction, and a \u201cMy Fair Memory\u201d presentation.<\/p>\n

Interviews, which are closed to the public, take place on August 19. The August 23 coronation event, which is open to the public, will include the candidates\u2019 costume, introduction and Fair memory presentation, as well as the crowning of the royal court and announcement of the People\u2019s Choice recipient.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Fair Queen and two princesses, judges will also name a cultural ambassador, who is of Alaska Native descent. The queen and members of the royal court will represent the Fair and share the Fair experience with Alaskans and visitors at events throughout the year.<\/p>\n
