In a response to the pop question, "What is the secret to life?"
Frontone indicated that she likes to live life to the fullest. A
list of her favorite activities supported her answer: "Running,
swimming, biking, rollerblading, hiking and playing volleyball are
some of the active hobbies that I enjoy. Ballet is another of my
interests, which I have been involved in for 12 years. I also enjoy
participating in choir and drama and my church and other local
churches."
Fortunately, a stretch of unbearable heat and humidity was broken
on this opening fair day. A nice southerly breeze cooled the crowd
and contestants.
Miss Logan County Fair 2005, Christina Xamis, chose the theme,
"An Evening in Greece." Sheer curtains arranged in clean lines
gently billowed and lent an authentic, if not ethereal, feel to the
setting.

 The grandstand audience enthusiastically rooted for the favorites
during the opening night event.
Twenty-year-old Amber Turner from Chestnut was named Miss
Congeniality.
Second runner-up was 21-year-old Abrigail Sasse from Beason.
First runner-up was 18-year-old Allison Eades from Cornland.
Queen Frontone will be busy all this week serving as the fair's
hostess, presenting as many awards as possible and greeting the
public. She will also go on to represent Logan County at the
Illinois county fair queen competition in January.
