(Le Mars) — Pork royalty abounds in the Greg and Erin Schroeder household of rural Remsen. During the Plymouth County Pork Producers annual banquet held Saturday evening at the Le Mars Convention Center, two of the Schroeder sisters were presented a tiara crown. The 2019 Plymouth County Pork Queen is Olivia Schroeder.
Moments later, little sister, Dylan Schroeder, was given a crown as she is one of the selected “Little Miss Pigtails.” Joining Dylan, for sharing the duties and responsibilities of “Little Miss Pigtails” is Savanah Sheehan, the daughter of Dan and Lori Sheehan of Remsen. All three girls will represent the Plymouth County Pork Producers at the Plymouth County Fair, various local parades, and other events involving the Plymouth County Pork Producers Association.
The Plymouth County Pork Producers acknowledged Fred and Donna Zenk of rural Akron. The Zenks were honored as “Master Pork Producers” in January during the Iowa Pork Congress held at Des Moines. A plaque was presented to Fred and Donna Zenk.
The evening was topped off with the comedy and magic illusions of Jerry Fraiser of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
