The Wisconsin Fairest of the Fairs program has been impacting people’s lives for over 60 years. Throughout the years, the sisterhood of the Fairests has remained a place where young women grow in confidence, poise and public speaking. But the community goes beyond the girls themselves. Nicole Nohl-Ress & Kevin C. Ress described themselves to me as Fairest of the Fair enthusiasts. They take joy in seeing the development the program instills in those who participate and enjoy giving back to it.
