Synopsis:
It’s summer time and the Bunyan County Fair is approaching, the biggest thing that’s happened in Bunyan Bay since the winter carnival snowplow parade. This year the Bunyan County Fair means one thing to Gunner and Clara Johnson, owners of a little bar called The Bunyan; The Miss Walleye Queen Competition. Bernice, the pretty waitress, sees this as her big chance to win Miss Walleye Queen, to be discovered, and more important, to have her face carved in butter at the Minnesota State Fair. The trouble begins when Gunner’s wife, Clara, decides she also wants to win Miss Walleye Queen. Bigger trouble arrives when Gunner’s estranged twin sister, Trigger, shows up to try to win the beauty pageant. 

Featuring 16 original songs including, “My Campfire is Burnin’,” “I’m a Bunyan Woman,” “If I Could Win Miss Walleye Queen,” “Pontoon Ladies,” “I’m Just a Pretty Forest Ranger,” and “Our Butter Face Queen.”
