Cold weather calls for a heartwarming State Fair story! ?? For the last seven years, Makenna Hansen has participated in the University of Minnesota Extension 4-H Llama-Alpaca Project. As a result, she began showing llamas at the Minnesota State Fair four years ago! In 2023, Makenna and her llama, Bubbles, dressed up as Rapunzel and her chameleon, Pascal, for the popular 4-H Llama-Alpaca Costume Contest! Their likeness made it all the way to an ad for the 2024 State Fair. In a surprising turn of events, Makenna recognized her photo on the side of a Minnesota Valley Transit Authority bus and had her friend quickly snap a photo. To show their support at this year's fair, Makenna's family dressed in T-shirts featuring her starring moment! Thanks to the Hansen family and all our exhibitors who help us create magical Minnesota State Fair moments. ?? ??
