Meet your co-convenors!

Paige Wilhelm

Paige Fawcett was the 2022 Stratford Fair Ambassador, and went on to be the 2023 District 8 Runner-Up and recipient of the FriendShip Award. 

The Stratford Fair Ambassador program is very important to her, having been an incredible opportunity to get more involved in the community, develop her public speaking and interview skills. And most importantly, making life-long friendships and getting to advocate for the importance of fall fairs.

She has been a part of the District 8 Ambassador committee since 2023, and a part of the Stratford Ambassador Committee since 2022. And now is thrilled to be a co-convenor of the Stratford Ambassador program and strives to help other ambassadors get just as much out of the program as she did!

Currently pursuing an BSc. in BioMed, Nutrition and Food science at the University of Guelph. She is also a highland dance teacher based out of Sebringville.

Faith Knechtel

Faith Knechtel was the 2023 Stratford Fair Ambassador, and went on to be the 2024 District 8 ambassador and First Runner-Up at the 2024 CNE Ambassador of the Fair competition. Faith was also a Stratford Fair Mini Princess when she was little!

With a long time involvement of the Stratford Ambassador program, it is incredibly dear to her heart. The ambassador program allowed Faith to give back to her community, further develop professional skills, and the opportunity to get more involved in fairs across Huron-Perth.

She has been a part of the District 8 Ambassador committee since 2024, and a part of the Stratford Ambassador Committee since 2023. And now is thrilled to be a co-convenor of the Stratford Ambassador program and hope to give new ambassadors the same opportunities she experienced!

A registered nurse at the Stratford General Hospital. Faith spends much of her free-time travelling or training for races and triathlons.
