It's been more than two years since an Indiana State Fair Queen was crowned. The wait ended this past weekend.
Alyssa McKillip is Miss Indiana State Fair 2022. The queen of Wabash County 2020
was selected over more than 100 other contestants. Some counties this year had more than one representative because some had fairs in 2020 during the pandemic while some did not.
The Indiana State Fair Queen is expected to promote the Indiana State Fair by traveling over 6,500 miles during June and July to over 40 county fairs to promote the upcoming Indiana State Fair, July 29 – Aug. 21, 2022.
