Meet your 2011 Fair Queen

Just as you’d expect the Fair Queen to be, Brittney Ray is poised, outgoing, and charismatic. But would you guess that she has been riding horse since before she could walk? Meet your 2011 Fair Queen Brittney Ray!

Brittney is no stranger to the Fair. She sang with her pageant friends when she was just five or six years old. She also showed livestock at the Fair for the past seven years. Her favorite Fair memory is camping out on the fairgounds with her 4-H club. What Brittney looks forward to most during her reign as Fair Queen is the week of fair itself.”I love the atmosphere and this year is going to the most special to me because I get to live every little girls dream and be the queen,” said Brittney. “I can't wait to see all the kids faces when they get to meet a ‘real queen’!”

You can meet Brittney at the Contra Costa County Fair, June 2 – 5. You can find her helping out with kid’s contests, the livestock auction, opening ceremonies and interacting with guests during the entire Fair. She will also make special appearances at community events as a spokesperson for the Fair during her yearlong reign.

We are so pleased to have Brittney as this year’s Fair Queen and look forward to her being an excellent example for youth in the county. Please make sure to come and visit her and all of us at the Contra Costa County Fair June 2 - 5 and celebrate with us as “The Tradition Continues”.
