Tulip Time's Governor's Luncheon will be without the governor this year and get a new name. Organizers snagged Miss America 2008 Kirsten Haglund as the guest of honor for the re-dubbed Tulip Time Festival Luncheon.
"It's a luncheon that has a long-standing tradition and there's a long-standing expectation in the community. ... It was a change of considerable magnitude for us," Tulip Time Executive Director Tamra Bouman said.
"To be able to secure her appearance and bring her to Tulip Time with such short notice is something we feel very good about," she said about Haglund.
Haglund will speak at the May 7 luncheon and show off her singing talents, Tulip Time organizers said. She will then ride in a horse-drawn carriage in the Volksparade.
