Best of Luck to the Miss Lake Festival Program!

Tonight in Celina, outgoing Miss Lake Festival Heather Waterman will crown her successor. The pre-show begins at 7:30 with the pageant at 8 p.m. at the Celina Field House.

I have the inside scoop on two of tonight's judges; one is a former Miss Lake Festival and retired music teacher of Celina City Schools, she was also my voice teacher all through high school, Suzanne Murlin. Another is a recent Miss Ohio performer, the husband of Miss Ohio 2004, Mr. Amanda Beagle, Craig Raymaley.

Please do not judge these ladies by the serious looks in some of these pictures; they all went to the same place and it is obviously the photographers style; images and services are is usually donated by Photography by Terry.
