A cool morning mist didn’t deter the excitement and festivities at Tournament House Monday morning for the annual official announcement of the Royal Court by the selection committee. Tournament Chairman of the Queen and Court Committee, Alex Aghajanian said he was “Very pleased with the final choice. These young ladies were selected from a pool of the most talented and poised in the Pasadena area.

Fans were out in force from La Canada Sacred Heart Academy and on hand to support their classmate Natalie Innocenzi and Katherine Hernandez who were two of those selected to be on the court. Arcadia High had a small contingent of fans supporting June Ko.

The coveted Tournament of Roses Queen announcement will take place next Tuesday morning at Tournament House.
