In search of the 2017-18 Ohio Lamb and Wool Queen

by | Apr 27, 2017 | Ohio Country Journal

The search is on once again. Help us round up the next Ohio Lamb and Wool Queen. The queen serves as a spokesperson for the industry throughout her year of reign at numerous promotional events and activities around the state and will be selected by judges at the Ohio State Fair.

Contestants will attend an interview and answer an impromptu question from a panel of judges live at the conclusion of the Guys and Gals lead competition. The selection of the queen is based on personality, presentation, poise and knowledge of the Ohio Lamb and Wool industry.

Contestants are encouraged to participate in the Guys and Gals Lead competition and we encourage all ladies between the ages of 17-22 who are involved in the industry to consider applying for this position. This is a tremendous opportunity to build a wealth of knowledge of the Ohio sheep, lamb and wool industry, expand communication skills, and network within Ohio agriculture.

If you or someone you know is interested in applying for the 2017-2018 Ohio Lamb and Wool Queen, please download the application by visiting www.ohiosheep.org. All applications must be postmarked to the Ohio State Fair by June 20, 2017.
