'Be Like Grace' Award 

The Adams County Fair recognizes a local child with a special award during the Little Miss and Mister Pageants each year.

The ‘Be Like Grace’ Award was established to remember and honor Grace Schell, the 2011 Little Miss Adams County Fair.  She died in a tragic atv accident in 2020. She was known in the Liberty area as a girl who was kind to everyone she met.  The “Be Like Grace” ​award recognizes a special contestant who shows kindness to other children or contestants around her.
