Senior high school beauty, Ana Velasco, was crowned the 2007 Como-Pickton Homecoming Queen, in pre-game activities, on Friday night, before the Como-Pickton Eagles' victory over the Celeste Blue Devils. "The Devils' didn't ruin our Homecoming," quipped one freshman class members, as she described the festivities that were culminated with the Como-Pickton victory. "It was great to win the game and Ana is such a sweet girl, that I'm glad she won the crown, this year!"

 

 

 

Earlier in the week, a series of events had begun with the naming of four senior girls to the court, and each of the under classes, electing a duchess to the court. Seniors named to the court included Velasco, Aeron Green, Shea Smith, and Brittany Hodges. Hannah Manverse represented the junior class. Saxe Daughtery was the sophomore representative on the court and the freshman class elected Michaela Williams.

Tuesday night, the boys and girls "reversed" roles and conducted the annual Como-Pickton Powder Puff Football Game, where the girls were the flag football team, the boys were the cheerleaders, and each class named a boy to the "homecoming court," to represent them. It was a fun night, with loads of laughs for everyone.

Then, on Friday, the Homecoming Pep Rally was conducted in the school gym, where the Homecoming Court and their moms were each introduced, as well as the football team, in a spirit-filled session, before school was released.

 

 

 

Friday night, found the Queen coronation getting underway at 6:40 p.m., when each of the members of the court were introduced, along with a crown bearer and flower girl. Then, the queen, who had been elected by a secret ballot of the student body, was revealed, before a large crowd of parents, spectators, and classmates.

 

 

The traditional Homecoming Dance followed the Como-Pickton victory, where spirits remained high, and ended Homecoming Week activities at Como-Pickton.

 

 

Congratulations, Ana Velasco,
2007 Homecoming Queen!!!
