🍎👑 Two Baskets. Two Great Causes. One Big Community! 👑🍎

Our 2026 Western Illinois Fair Royalty has put together TWO amazing baskets to donate to the Griggsville Apple Festival Cake, Cookie & Basket Auction! 🎁

Our first basket is just a few of Queen Mariska, Jr Miss Rorie, & Princess Meika’s favorite things. From a Stanley to a blanket to a squishy, we have something for everyone in there-including TWO season passes for the 2027 Fair!

Our second basket brings a little Griggsville nostalgia with it, featuring Ladema Sappington’s famous popcorn balls and five dozen cookies of a variety of flavors!

These baskets are filled with goodies and a whole lot of heart — because being Fair Royalty isn’t just about wearing the crown. It’s about giving back, supporting our communities, and celebrating the people and traditions that make our communities so special.

Come out to Griggsville tonight to bid on these baskets & support our Queen pageant and the Apple Festival!

🍎👑 Griggsville Apple Festival Pageant 👑🍎

Tonight was such a special night! Our girls had the best time getting to represent Western Illinois! This evening was especially meaningful for Queen Mariska, who had the honor of serving as the 2022 Griggsville Apple Festival Queen. Getting to return to the pageant and serve as the emcee was such a special full-circle moment.

Jr. Miss Rorie also had the opportunity to help on stage tonight, making the evening even more memorable! We are so thankful for these opportunities, the memories we’ve made, and the chance to give back to a community that has given us so much.

Congratulations to all of the contestants and our new royalty! ❤️
