A Manitowoc teen was named the first runner-up at the 2024 Miss Wisconsin’s Teen competition.
Miss Harbor Cities’ Teen Katherine Vadney was in Oshkosh for the pageant on June 21st, where she landed one spot behind the eventual winner, Elle Bey.
With the second-place finish, Vadney earns over $800 in scholarships as she attends the Catholic University of America.
The Roncalli graduate performed a Ballet en Pointe variation from Paquita for the talent phase of the competition.
Vadney was nothing but complimentary to her fellow competitors, saying, “I will never get over how honored I am to be first runner-up to one of the most incredible young women I know. Ella is a beautiful person inside and out and she will be the most amazing representative for Wisconsin. Every delegate made this week special and fun.”
Bey will now go to Orlando, Florida, in January to participate in the Miss America’s Teen competition.
