America's 40s Carolyn Ladd Joins Washington Royalty at Miss Washington USA

Beauties of America 40's Carolyn Ladd was on hand this past weekend for the crowning of the new Miss Washington USA. The pageant was held on October 9, 2011, at the Highline Performing Arts Center in Burien, Washington in front of a sold out, enthusiastic crowd.

Christina Clark beat out 31 other contestants for the title.  Christina is a 22 year old student at Bellevue College.  She is a former cheerleader for the Seattle Seahawks.  During the onstage interview portion of the competition she sang a few bars from an Elvis song.

Here Carolyn is pictured with the outgoing Miss Washington USA Angelina Kayyalaynen and the Washington International Junior Miss royalty.  She is also pictured with (from left to right):  Trisha Downey, Ms. Classic American Renaisance Classic; Laura Hunter, Mrs. Washington International; and Chantel Clifford, Miss Aquafest.
