Contestant Sponsorship

As part of the Miss Boone County Fair Queen Program, each participant is required to have a contestant sponsor. This sponsorship helps support program expenses and scholarship opportunities while strengthening connections between contestants and the Boone County community.

The sponsorship fee is $150 per contestant.

What is Contestant Sponsorship?

Contestant sponsorship is designed to connect participants with local businesses, organizations, or community supporters who wish to invest in the development of young female leaders in Boone County.

Sponsors may include:

  • Local businesses

  • Community organizations

  • Civic groups

  • Service clubs

  • Other community supporters

Sponsorship is not a fundraising competition and does not affect judging or selection in any way.

Support is Available

Contestants are encouraged to reach out to local businesses or organizations that may be interested in supporting their participation.

However, no contestant will be excluded from the program due to difficulty securing a sponsor. If a participant is unable to identify a sponsor on their own, the program will work to connect her with a community sponsor who wishes to support a contestant.

For Businesses & Organizations

Local businesses and organizations are invited to support the Miss Boone County Fair Queen Program by sponsoring a contestant.

Community sponsors may:

  • Choose to sponsor a specific contestant, or

  • Request to be matched with a participant seeking sponsorship

Sponsorship provides businesses and organizations an opportunity to invest directly in leadership development while supporting Boone County youth.
