The Florida Seafood festival has chosen its queen.
17-year-old Autumn Loesch of St. George Island was picked as this year’s queen.
Autumn is the daughter of Natasha and JonPaul Loesch.
5 young ladies took part in this year’s selection process and it was a very close contest.
The point difference between 1st and 2nd was 0.7 and the difference between 1st and 3rd was only 1.7.
Runner up this year is Kelsey Martina of Eastpoint.
Also competing this year were Skylar Lane of Eastpoint, Alexcia McNair of Apalachicola and Jennifer Nolan.
Judges this year were Shawn Yao, the Director of Forensic Services at the Criminal Investigation Bureau for the Tallahassee Police Department, Madison Glaser, the week-end morning anchor and news reporter at WCTV in Tallahassee and Jessica Foster, the morning anchor for News Channel 7 Today WJHG.
The title comes with a 1000-dollar scholarship.
As queen, Autumn will 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.
