MISS CAPITAL CITY SCHOLARSHIP ORGANIZATION

Kaylah Dockter was crowned Miss Capital City 2010 on Saturday, October 24, 2009 at the Paul & Sheila Wellstone Center for Community Building in the capital city of St. Paul!  She became the 2nd young woman to carry the title of Miss Capital City.  For the talent portion of the competition, Kaylah performed a vocal selection  "O Mio Babbino Caro” by Giacomo Puccini.  Kaylah was the overall talent winner for the evening.

Kaylah will spend her year as Miss Capital City promoting her platform "Easing the Teasing:  You are Valuable."   

As a performer, Kaylah has learned many valuable lessons, how to present a positive image, how to convey a particular message, and how to interact with people, to mention a few, but they are the most important qualities that she can bring to the Miss Capital City Organization.

Some interesting facts about Kaylah is that she is an avid Minnesota Twins baseball fan (and would LOVE to meet Joe Mauer),  was a gymnast for ten years of her life, and parasailing is her most favorite thing to do while on vacation!  Her pet peeve is “someone reading over my shoulder while I am reading a book or magazine.”

Kaylah grew up in Apple Valley, Minnesota, where she was a graduate of Eastview High School in Apple Valley, MN.  She is the daughter of Kenneth and Rynelle Dockter.  Kaylah also has a brother Jordan (22), and two sisters - Courtney (17) and Jenna (16).  She also has a Golden Retriever named Maggie who is 9 years old, and is basically another sibling!!

Kaylah is a junior at the University of Minnesota (Twin Cities campus) where she is working toward a Bachelor of Music, Vocal Performance Degree.  She hopes to obtain a Master’s Degree in Vocal Performance, and become a successful opera singer.
