2024-25 Clark County Fairest of the Fair Candidates: Emma Moen

Wednesday, July 17th, 2024 -- 1:00 PM

The Clark County Fairest of the Fair competition is just a few weeks away.

The crowning of the Fairest of the Fair is happening Wednesday, August 7th at 7pm in Dairy Show Arena at the Clark County Fairgrounds. I had an opportunity to speak with all seven candidates vying for the position including Emma Moen sponsored by Unity Bank.

Emma will be a Sophomore in college this fall at UW-La Crosse for Accounting. In high school, Emma was involved in FFA, Student Council, and Spanish Club, and track. FFA was one of her favorites.

She did a lot of speaking events, volunteering and different projects. In college, she’s the Secretary of the Archery Club and she’s also in the Women in Business Club. Emma discussed why she decided to run for Fairest of the Fair.

"So, a couple years ago, I ran for Miss Neillsville and I absolutely loved being on the court. I loved everything that we do. I loved getting out in the community, meeting people, volunteering, so that's exactly what I want to do with Fairest of the Fair."

"And it's a wider range with Fairest of the Fair because we don't just have Neillsville, it's all of Clark County. So, I'm excited to get out there, meet a bunch of new people and help all around our County."

Again, the 2024-25 Clark County Fairest of the Fair will be crowned Wednesday, August 7th at 7pm in the Dairy Show Arena at the Clark County Fairgrounds. We’ll hear from another candidate tomorrow.

Outgoing Fairest of the Fair Devani Hinkleman offered some advice for this year’s candidates: “Honestly, something I wish I would have known more before I went into is how important it is to actually soak up those moments and every event you go to, just take it in."

"Because this year has, honestly, flown by way faster than I thought it was going to. And it’s just something that you just need to take that time, soak it in, and enjoy every moment.”
