Logan County Fair Queen Kelsi Ubbenga took up a new hobby that kept
her a front-runner at this year's fair after her duties ended. Ubbenga took
third place with her spice cake, and it won $400
for the Logan County 4-H Foundation. The cake was purchased by Judge
John McClullough.
This year's queen, Dani Juilfs, said she was inspired by Ubbenga
and is considering learning to bake to enter the contest herself
next year. Who knows, if she does, maybe they will start a trend for
fair queens.
Below are the rest of the competitors in the order they finished the
competition. Logan County Fair President Dean Bruns and 2012

winners after the
