Miss USA Erin Brady Welcomed Back at Portland High School

The 25-year-old Portland High School grad came back to crowds of cheering supporters.

Miss USA Erin Brady has returned to her hometown.

A large crowd greeted the 25-year-old pageant winner with cheers and support during a visit at her alma mater, Portland High School, on Tuesday, The Middletown Press reported.

A local camp came to see her appearance, as well as First Selectman Susan Bransfield, state Sen. Art Linares and Rep. Christie Carpino. Linares and Carpino presented Brady an official state citation for her achievement.

The Press chronicled the visit with several video clips.

Brady, who currently lives and works in Glastonbury, got the crown — and a year in a New York apartment — during the Miss USA Pageant in June. She is a graduate of Central Connecticut State University in New Britain.
