Almara, sponsored by Little River Fudge Company, will be a junior at Alexandria Central School this fall. She enjoys playing tennis and soccer and plans to pursue a career in child psychology.
First runner-up is Annie Compo, who collected $ 1, 115.00 for the society in the annual Kate Johnston contest. Annie is a graduate of Immaculate Heart Central and a sophomore at SUNY Genesseo. A pre-med major, she enjoys jet skiing on the river.
