Fair-ing well - Fredericksburg Standard

AND THEN THERE WERE FIVE — The 2025 Gillespie County Fair Queen court members were crowned last Friday at the 136th Gillespie County Fair. They are from left, First Duchess Ellie Tatsch, Second Duchess Kirsten Hartmann, Queen Nora Schoessow, Third Duchess Halston Staudt and Fourth Duchess Rayleigh Beyer. Judges had a statistical tie between third and fourth places, so Ms. Beyer was given her sash and flower bouquet after the ceremony. — Standard-Radio Post/Christine Granados
