Seaforth girls win at Bayfield Rise2Fame qualifier This year's Rise2Fame preliminary competition for the Western Fair at Bayfield was even more successful than in previous years. Organizer Charlie Kalbfleisch and Western Fair representative Beth Sailor both remarked on the extremely high calibre of acts competing in both the Junior and Youth Categories. The theme for the Bayfield Fair this year was "Remembering Canadian Country Dreams!" and certainly many young dreams will come true as nine young people move on to compete at the quarter- final competition in September at the Western Fair. Bayfield's Rise2Fame contest is now the only preliminary competition for the Western Fair in Huron County. Former Huron County competitors have moved on to careers in the arts, teaching, acting, music and in the television and film industry. Emcee Wilhelmina Laurie also remarked on the quality and variety of the competition. "This year our competitors have come from as far away as Strathroy, St. Marys and Parkhill to compete at Bayfield, and the level of expertise of all these young people is astounding. This year more kids were accompanying themselves on their own instruments. We had two bands participating — and even a young harpist performed for us! Rise2Fame gives kids a venue for performance and a boost of confidence and we are pleased to be able to support our talented youth in this way." Judges Heather Dawe, Elise Feltrin and Sarah Broadfoot had an extremely difficult time determining the winners of the competition. Winners in the Junior category of children under 12 were Hailey Turnbull and Madyx Carrothers who performed a variety solo dance called "Sea Cruise". In second place was the vocal solo "Rise Up" by Ava Alcaidinho. Third-place winner Alexa Yeo sang and played "It's a Better Place" on the harp. Also moving on to competition at the Western Fair is Madyx Carrothers for her variety solo ribbon dance "Dream a Little Dream" In the Youth category of ages 12- 21 first -place winners were Seaforth's own Irelyn and Mary Paige St. Onge. This entertaining country duo sang and performed "Head over Heels". They were also the winners of last year's competition in Paris, Ontario. In second place was Delaney Schoelier of St. Marys whose vocal solo "Creep" brought down the house. Third-place Rory McLachlan Obituaries performed an evocative vocal solo, "Burn" and played his acoustic guitar. Also moving on to the Western Fair are Maya Alcaidinho for her beautiful `Arabian Nights" dance and a band from St. Marys comprised of Mason Otte, Dinith Nawaranme and Adam Swallowell who performed "Crazy Train." Congratulations to all the winners and best wishes as you follow your Canadian dream to the Western Fair. Our thanks to the Bayfield Agricultural Society and the Optimists for supporting Rise2Fame at the Bayfield Fair, the only Huron competition.
