Queen’s Proclamation I am very excited, and honored to declare the 119th Sequim Irrigation Festival shall be May 2-11. The 2014 royal court, Princesses Judi, Kaylee, Kristina, and I, Queen Katey, hereby ask one and all to join us in creating fond memories throughout this fun-packed weekend. My wonderful court has been working hard to make this an amazing experience, and we are very excited to share it with you, whether it’s a night of fun at the carnival or keeping the tradition going at the logging show! Mostly, I think we are all eagerly waiting for the Grand Parade, where we hope to see you along the streets of our idyllic town waving back at us! We are forever grateful of all the support from our festival volunteers, without whom, we wouldn’t be able to celebrate the amazing accomplishments of our friendly town. We would also like to recognize each and every one of you in the community for helping the Irrigation Festival carry on as the longest running festival in Washington. So come celebrate with the royal court and community, as we dedicate the 119th Irrigation Festival to our pristine mountains and seas that we are blessed to witness in our little town of Sequim.
Queen Katey
