there was no one who was able to successfully hold the pageant. This year's
pageant was directed by Laura Boehmke, a teacher at Steel Canyon High School; Michelle Ditomaso, a former guidance counselor for the Grossmont Union High School District; and Alexandra Kuty, director of the and Miss Santee Pageants.
The panel of judges included Meredith Cooper, former Miss Bonita and Miss
