Maine Lobster Festival

The newest Maine Sea Goddess works on the fishing vessel Gloucester Girl and lists lobstering among her hobbies -- along with traveling, working out, reading and teaching.

Callie Lynn MacQueston of Vinalhaven, who was ceremoniously crowned Wednesday night at the 62nd annual Maine Lobster Festival amid pomp, circumstance and neighborly cheer, seems a perfect choice for the 2009 Sea Goddess. She’ll represent the festival and the Maine lobster industry for the next year.

Outgoing Sea Goddess Bryson Cowan of Thomaston said that it was an honor to wear the sparkly crown.
