Sarah Niehueser, FdL Miss Outstanding Teen

Sarah Niehueser, 16, of Fond du Lac was crowned Miss Fond du Lac’s 2014 Outstanding Teen at the local pageant held on Saturday, March 8, 2014 at the Goodrich Little Theater.  Her platform was women on target – competitive target shooting for women and her talent was piano.  According to Sarah her favorite event in the pageant was the evening gown competition.

Sarah is a student at Winnebago Lutheran Academy (WLA) who runs Cross Country and is involved in other activities at WLA.  She never thought of doing a pageant until someone approached her and encouraged her to give it a shot.  Sarah was picked the winner out of a field of six contestants and has had a wonderful year so far making various appearances as the Miss FDL Outstanding Teen.  Sarah’s mother, Pam, joined her on Monday and is Sarah’s official chaperone and photographer.  Not only did Sarah win the local competition but she also competed at the National Pageant in Ohio.
