The theme this year was the lively musical Grease that starred Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta.

The principal sponsor of this event is Highlands Horizons with active participation from business and civic entities.

The podium was aptly manned by Capt. David Alford and Miss Highlands 2012 Casie Russell. Miss Russell sang a rousing opening with participants dancing for ceremonies.

The lovely array of contestants was introduced next. There was a sportswear presentation followed by an outstanding Talent Show. Stacy Lineberry sang a sophisticated entertainment segment.

During the evening gown presentation contestants were asked what is most challenging for teens today.
