Four finalists who make up the queen’s court are Denita Karatzas, Miss Chamber of Commerce and first runner-up; Amy Martinez, second runner-up; Jennifer Jaines, Miss Photogenic and third runner-up; and Wendy Serrano, fourth runner-up. Karatzas also won the Miss Public Relations title for selling the most pageant tickets, and Jeannine Leon was chosen Miss Congeniality.
