Another pageant queen is in the books as Young Miss Christmas on the River 2016 was crowned at the Demopolis Civic Center tonight.

Master of Ceremonies Dr. Ken Tucker presented each of the 36 lovely contestants. After they each took a turn to impress the three judges, a top 16 was chosen.

The top 16 were then presented to judges again in hopes of being placed in the top five and competing for the crown by answering an onstage question. After telling the judges what their favorite Christmas present was and why, the judges came to a decision.

Wearing and ivory and sparkling gold ball gown was fourth alternate Adalyn Broox Lindsey.

Elleigh Reid Dossett, in a sea foam green tiered organza gown, was awarded third alternate.

Second Alternate was Sara Michael Overmyer, who wore a white tulle gown adorned with iridescent stones.
