Amy Gilbert was crowned the 2014 Chelsea Community Fair queen Friday night.

Born and raised in Chelsea, when asked why she’d make a good Chelsea Fair Queen she wrote, “I am involved with not just my community but with others as well. I enjoy every minute that I help, teach and lead others. I think that I would be a great example for the younger kids at the fair in our community.”
