The 2010 LaVerkin Princess Pageant "Hoe Down Happenin'" was held on March 6th... in the Hurricane High School Auditorium. The seven lovely young ladies who competed for the titles and crowns denoting royalty positions were Hollyann Gubler, Audrey Stevens, Ashley Stackhouse, Christanda Drake, AnneBelle Justice, Brittani Mott, and Brianna Williamson. Ashley Stackhouse, daughter of Mitch and Daniela Stackhouse, was crowned Miss LaVerkin 2010, performing an outstanding vocal solo "Have You Ever Been In Love".  1^st attendant was awarded to Christanda Drake, the daughter of Michelle Drake. Audrey Stevens, the daughter of Tracy and Rebecca Stevens was named 2^nd attendant. Drake was also crowned Miss Congeniality. Stackhouse was given the pageant director award, and Hollyann Gubler received the prize for Most Photogenic. Talent and Poise awards were given to Ashley, with Interview and Introduction awards going to Christanda.

The pageant was staged by the 2009 royalty and their parents, and was a beautiful presentation. The girls performed their special number from the Washington County Fair princess performance, and showed a power point presentation of their year-long activities. The outgoing royalty - Princess Brooke Gubler, 1^st attendant Audrey Stevens, and 2^nd attendant KC Gubler - has represented LaVerkin City well this past year.  The city expresses gratitude to them, their parents -Leon and Teresa Gubler, and Tracy and Rebecca Stevens- and their families for their work and gracious service to the community.

The new royalty is a very talented group and will be a great asset to the city. They have a big year ahead of them, representing the city at the Washington County fair, supporting the city in festivals and city events, other parades and festivals - representing the city throughout the area. The girls will also participate in service projects of their choice throughout the year. This is a great opportunity for growth as well as a great honor. LaVerkin congratulates Ashley, Christanda, and Audrey on their awards and looks forward to another great year!
