Apr. 6—The 2023 Lake County Fair Queen contest is now open to young ladies ages 16 to 19 years old.

Although the contest is not affiliated with the 4-H program, entrants must be a member of 4-H, Junior Fair Board, or FFA and live in Lake County, according to a news release.

Applications, rules and regulations and summary will be available in the Fair Office, 1301 Mentor Ave. in Painesville, or online at www.lakecountyfair.org under "Forms." Deadline for submitting applications is May 11.

This is not a beauty contest, the release stated, as applicants will be judged on personality, poise, community service and service to their organization. Judging will be held on June 10 and the crowning will take place on July 9.

The queen will reign over the fair this year and participate in the Ohio State Fair Queen contest held in Columbus in January, the release stated.
