Katy and Laura vying for the CW23 job

Laura, Allie Hartwick, and Katy (2009 Jills)
WNLO-TV, CW23 in Buffalo, has employed a spokesperson for the last 4 years, a person who represents the station in the community and in advertisements among other things. For the 1st two years, Lydia Dominick held the job, which is given with 1-year contracts so that there's always a fresh face in the job to attract the station's normal demographic of viewers. Lydia brought a style to the station with her personality as well as her beauty and covered Buffalo Jills tryouts in 2008 and 2009 for the station. She even wound up becoming a sort of honorary Jill after her work with the squad. Her replacement, Allie Hartwick, brought a different sort of style to the job for the last two years as she grew with the role and had many experiences to take from it. Now, they've been looking for the next person to take the job for the last couple of months and they have it narrowed down to a field of 5. Today, they taped a special at the McKinley Mall in Hamburg, NY to introduce the new CW23 star to the public. However, they kept the winner a total secret, even to those competing for the role. They filmed 5 different endings for the show, one with each of the contestants winning the job. They'll be airing the finished product on Wednesday at 7pm ET and while we wish the best for whomever is chosen for the role, we definitely have someone we're rooting for to get the job, or in this case, 2 someones.

Katy spent the 2009 season as a Buffalo Jills Ambassador, including a cover shot on the Buffalo Jills swimsuit calendar, after having interned at 97Rock and helping out with Jills events in 2008. She's less than a month away from graduating with her degree in broadcast journalism.
Laura is currently in her 5th season with the Jills and is the co-captain of the Buffalo Jills Ambassador Squad. In addition to her work on the Jills, she's very possibly the world's most well-known Jill as the Martin Archery Girl and has done her share of TV work with her own show on ESPN2 last summer.
Good luck to everyone in this contest but especially to our own Katy and Laura.
