Alderson Queen Of Lights Selected
Thank
to
Ms.
Lois
McVey
for
helping
select
the
Queen
of
Lights
and
her
Attendants.
The
decision
was
made
last
year
to
select
her
majesty
and
court
from
our
Alderson
Elementary
Fifth
Grade
as
an
Honor
for
the
class
as
they
get
ready
to
transition
to
the
middle
school.
The
selection
of
Queen
of
Lights
used
to
be
made
from
the
Alderson
Junior
High
9th
grade.
Once
consolidation
happened
the
process
went
up
to
the
high
school
at
East.
Now,
it’s
back
a
little
closer
home.
Although
the
Queen
has
always
been
an
Alderson
resident, it seems to mean more to the younger ladies.
Pictured
in
the
center
is
Grace
Boettner,
The
Queen
of
Lights
.
Grace
is
the
daughter
of
Stacey
Lambert
and Fritz Boettner.
Left is
Attendant
Emily Pyles daughter of Verle and Lora Pyles.
On the right is
Attendant
Dixie Wright, daughter of Carla and Isaiah Parker and James Wright.
These
young
ladies
are
fifth
graders
at
Alderson
Elementary.
They
will
be
riding
in
the
Annual
Alderson
Christmas
Parade
on
Friday,
December
1st
and
they
will
be
introduced
before
the
parade
at
the
Historic
Depot.
Congratulation to The Queen of Lights and her Attendants!
