Alyssa Williams, the daughter of Dale and Victoria Williams, of Milton, was named the 2009 Milton Harvest Festival Princess at the conclusion of the princess pageant at Milton High School Saturday night.
“I wasn’t nervous,” Williams said.
“I just tried to stay focused and keep my eye on my goal, to represent the Rotary Club.” Williams was selected from among 13 contestants.
Bernadette Fuentes, who was sponsored by the Central Pennsylvania Chamber of Commerce, was runner-up, and Lindsay Byers, representing the Junior Women’s Club of Milton, received the Spirit award.
