The Florida
Seafood festival has chosen its queen.
Christina Collins, a senior at the Franklin
County School, won the title at the annual Seafood festival pageant last
Saturday.
Christina is the
daughter of Cindy and Johnny Collins of Apalachicola .
She was chosen from a field of nine contestants – it was the
biggest field of contestants in many years.
She will be pretty busy over the next few months publicizing
the seafood festival.
She’ll take part in parades around the region and make
appearances on area television and radio stations.
She’ll also stay busy during the festival which is scheduled
for November 2nd and 3rd this year.
As queen she’ll officially open the event, as well as head
up the annual parade.
And along with King Retsyo, she’ll ride in the front boat
during the blessing of the fleet, and oversee the oyster shucking and oyster
eating contests.
And if you would like to stay up to date on all of the
planned festivities and entertainment for this year’s festival – check out the

This year’s headline entertainment by the way is Country
artist Lee Brice.
