Angels Camp, CA...Katherine Sharp, a 17 year old graduate from Connecting Waters Charter School. Katherine has grown up in Mountain Ranch and she loves serving as Vice President in her local 4H club and riding horses. In the fall, she plans on attending UCLA to pursue a degree in neuroscience. It was an interesting evening as the weather drove the contest inside to the Mark Twain Hall. So instead of main outdoor stage with plenty of seating for spectators & family members it became a standing room only affair. The call as made at the last minute as every chance was given to Mother Nature to change her ways.
Lots and Lots of Additional Photos Below..
