Alyson J. Holland, 16, Logan Elm High School junior - Alyson is the daughter of Thomas and Deana Holland of Circleville.

At Logan Elm, Alyson is active as a varsity cheerleader and she is involved in the pep club and French club. She is employed at Dairy Shed during the summer and on weekends throughout the month of December.

After high school she hopes to receive a scholarship and attend at university to pursue a career in phlebotomy or as a nurse practitioner.

If she could invite anyone to Pumpkin Show she said the following, "I would invite my grandfather who just passed away this October, so he could see me in the Miss Pumpkin Show contest, eat all of the great food, see the wonderful parades and come to the Greatest Free Show on Earth."

Alyson said every Pumpkin Show is wonderful for her. "Although, the experience that is the most memorable was in 1990, when I was given the honor of Little Miss Pumpkin Show Queen. It was a wonderful welcome to the city of Circleville and I'll never forget it."
