This year's Queen contest had 4 contestants vying for the title of 2009 Gnadenhutten Fireworks Festival Queen.
The festivities were held on the stage at Heck's Grove Park at 7:30pm on July 2. Each contestant had to give a speech on "What the 4th of July Means To Me". They were judged on their speaking capabilities, appearance and poise. Each contestant also had to answer an impromptu question.
Hali Host, our 2008 Gnadenhutten Fireworks Festival Queen, helped crown the 2009 1st attendant Katie Cookson and the 2009 Queen Haley Bates. Both girls were presented with crystal crowns, sashes, crystal crown pins and trophies. Both girls also got to ride in this year's parade.
Once again, Mickey Bache was our emcee for the evening's festivities. The Gnadenhutten Fireworks Festival committee would like to thank Mickey for helping us with these contests for the past several years.
