Sara competed in swimsuit and evening gown at Friday's preliminary competition. She was beautiful, poised and elegant. Her white velvet swimsuit and tangerine evening gown looked beautiful on the stage and that wonderful smile and dimples that are so unique to her were present with every step that she took. Our "little girl" showed everyone what a gorgeous woman she is. She did not win the preliminary swimsuit competition but did well and we feel she is doing a wonderful job. The top 10 contestants will be announced tonight (Saturday) at the beginning of the show. Sara has done her best and now we just wait and see what happens. Whatever the outcome, she has been a wonderful representative for Beloit and will come home a winner in our eyes.
