Karolyn Lewis and Lewis Pollard did an excellent job as the mistress and master of ceremonies.  Kimberly Franklin wowed us with her vocal talent, and the dancers from Studio 88 Dance Productions shared their poise and grace.

WEC’s Blessings in a Backpack Team provided the concessions this year.  Blessings in a Backpack is a unique program that is designed to feed students who are at risk of having little or no food on the weekends.  Eighty dollars sends one child home with a backpack full of food each weekend for an entire 38 week school year.  The pageant committee appreciates the opportunity to work with such a program.

Special thanks to our sponsors as well as in-kind donations from the following businesses:  Dazzles Hair Studio, Libby McFalls Photography, Nicole’s 31 Gifts, Skin Therapy of North Florida, Synovus Mortgage, Wakulla Chamber of Commerce, and Whaley Photography.

Committee Members include:  Co-Chairs Michelle Davis and Tara Kieser, Brooke Brown, Suzanne Camp, Molly Clore, Kimberly Crum, Pamela Davis, Candace Hicks, Amber McIver, Janie Register, Nicole Singleton and Vickie Whaley.

We enjoyed working with this great group of young ladies and seeing what the future of Wakulla County holds.  We would like to thank our families and Wakulla County for their support in making the pageant a success.
