The Yuma County Fair Queen Committee, along with Yuma County Commissioners and Yuma County Cattleman’s Association, announced this week that the Yuma County Fair & Rodeo Lady-in-Waiting Contest to tryout for the 2022 Queen, previously scheduled for July 30, 2020, has been canceled due to the impact of COVID-19.
This decision was not taken lightly, and every alternative option was explored first.
Yuma County Fair Queen Committee, Yuma County Commissioners, and Yuma County Cattleman’s Association have decided the current 2020 Queen Miss Morgan Jones, will continue her reign as Yuma County Fair & Rodeo Queen until end of August 2021. Lady-in-Waiting Miss Grace Schaffner will begin her Queen reign as Queen beginning of September 2021 until end of August 2022.
We are grateful to be moving forward with this decision and would like to thank our dedicated sponsors that have continued to support this program year and year again.
The Yuma County Queen Committee consists of Michelle Smith and Kaci Portner. The Yuma County Commissioners are Trent Bushner, Dean Wingfield and Robin Wiley.
Representing the Yuma County Cattlemen’s Association are Jeremy Blach, Clarence Young, Travis Fonte and Ray Hendrix.
