Cape Cod Times

Cape Cod bartender did not become Voice of Logan. Here's who won instead.

She didn't take home the title, but Kristin Ingala went the distance in the contest to find the next Voice of Boston Logan International Airport . Ingala, a South Dennis resident, competitive boxer, and popular bartender at the Chatham Squire, was one of eight finalists selected from nearly 6,000 entries in Massport's search for a new "Voice of Logan."
