The first ever 'Queen' for Alexandra's blossom festival is heading back there this weekend for the event.
Karen Peterson was given the honour back in 1957 when she was fourteen years old. She's making her way back to the 65th event in the small Otago town, complete with sash to join the 'senior Queen's float'.
Karen talks to Charlotte about the event and the tradition of appointing a queen at the annual festival.
