Apple Festival Queen and/or King Coronation
For 62 years, the Apple Festival Committee has picked a high school student with ties to the orchards.
On Saturday, October 5, the community is invited to line the streets of Rittenhouse Avenue to congratulate the King and/or Queen in a procession to the coronation. (The Bayfield Lakeside Pavilion will be the rain location.)
Queen Procession: 6:45 p.m. October 5
Coronation: 7:00 p.m. at Bayfield Memorial Park.
2024 Apple Festival Queen:
Morgan Wroblewski
Congratulations to Morgan Wroblewski of Hauser's Superior View Farm. She has been attending the Bayfield Apple Festival for as long as she can remember. In her words, “since I was a baby.” Morgan’s mom, Becca, was born a Hauser. Morgan works in the gift shop on weekends during the summer.
There will be several opportunities to see Morgan throughout the festival, including at the Mayor's proclamation, the Apple Peeling Contest, the Rittenhouse information booth on Friday afternoon, the Queen's Coronation on Saturday night, and, of course, during the Apple Festival Grand Parade!
If you’re wondering, Morgan does have a favorite apple to eat. Right now, it’s the Honeycrisp. She prefers a crisp apple, one with a bit of bite to it, over the softer varieties, and the blend of sweetness and tartness is a treat.
