This is Michigan, not Maine--I didn't even know they grew potatoes there!

"There's royal intrigue at the Munge Potato Festival, with Queen Allison Nowicki protesting her ouster over claims of playing hooky. With only 6 weeks left in her reign, she received a letter from the festival committee saying it was dethroning her for failure to attend enough events as queen. Not so, says Nowicki, who appeared at the Miss Bay Coundy Pageant, St. Johns Mint Festival, Bay County Fair, Montrose Blueberry Festival, and Linwood Pickle Festival."

My question, what appearances to Maine queens make? Are they required, encouraged, or optional?

The Maine Potato Queen travels throughout New England promoting the Maine potato. She attends agricultural trade events as well as industry meetings/dinners. She is required to go to the Big E in Mass and work at the Maine Potato Booth. She also attends community events such as parades, town festivals and concerts, all the while being involved with whatever platform issue she is passionate about.
