1970 Daffodil Festival Queen. Shelley Grobey of Mount Tahoma High School was selected as the 1970 Daffodil Festival Queen. She is posed with a jeweled crown of old gold in her blond hair and holding a scepter and bouquet of daffodils. Miss Grobey is wearing the white velvet royal robe with a embroidered daffodil motif. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Grobey, Jr., she is the youngest of five children. One of the few golden haired queens selected in the festival's first 37 years, the blue-eyed high school senior is president of Mount Tahoma's choir, and member of the studio choir, Cleophas, Pep Club and Senior Girls Trio.
