The
Florida Seafood festival has chosen its queen.
Franklin
County High School senior Brooke Martina was crowned Miss Florida
Seafood Saturday night.
Brooke
is the daughter of Lance and Paula Martina of Apalachicola.
She
was selected from a field of six candidates.
Brooke
is very active in school as a member of the National Honor Society,
Beta Club, soccer, and as captain of the cheerleading squad.
The
title comes with a 1000 dollar scholarship.
She
will be pretty busy over the next few months publicizing the 54th
annual Florida 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
3rd
and 4th 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.
