One will be queen for a day.

Meet the 2016 Ada Harvest and Herb queen candidates.

Five Ada High School seniors are candidates for this year’s festival queen. They are:
• Ashley Breidenbach, daughter of Travis and Tracy Breidenbach
• Rielyn Castle, daughter of Cherie and Raymond Castle
• Mara Guyton, daughter of Christine Cavallaro and Steve Guyton
• Olivia Guyton, daughter of Christine Cavallaro and Steve Guyton
• Libbie Milks, daughter of Mike and Beth Milks

Contestants were judged on Sept. 11. Each completed three brief essays on:

• If you were to support a special cause or offer to volunteer for a special organization, which would it be and why?
• Describe three characteristics that make you who and what you are today.
• What would it mean to you personally and to the Ada community if you were crowned the 2016 Harvest and Herb Festival queen?
