3/22-
Had a great time helping to sell raffle tickets at a benefit concert to help send kids of military families to camp. This concert was organized by Miss Spokane's Outstanding Teen JJ Brown. She is truly a great role model with a huge heart! Great music and a great cause.
Leavenworth-Fundraiser for Simply Found and Mrs. Washington America Commercial Shoot
4/21-4/22-
This weekend I had the pleasure of meeting and carpooling with the other ladies from the Spokane area. It was wonderful to meet them and hear about what their platforms are and why they are so passionate about them. What a great group of women!
We traveled to Leavenworth to help Kristine Dowell (Mrs. Leavenworth) with a fundraiser for Simply Found. It's a wonderful group that helps homeless women find jobs by giving them interview attire and professional looking clothing. Kristine was beyond hospitable, and a gracious hostess.
We also filmed a commercial for the pageant. It was fun to be a part of the process and the final project looked great!
KHQ Food Drive for Northwest Harvest
4/28-
Woke up bright and early to help out the KHQ food drive for Northwest Harvest. It was such a fun morning hanging out with some of our local news team. They made me feel welcome and kept me entertained with the rivalry between SWX and KHQ. I was even interviewed on the news :)
The highlight of my morning was meeting Julie Delaney. She does such an amazing job promoting Northwest Harvest and informing the public about how prevelent hunger is in our community and how easy it is to help a family in need. Julie is also on the board for the Angel Ball Gala, a huge fundraiser for juvenile diabetes, and is a great lady I now count as a friend.
It was encouraging to see so many people support the food drive and help stomp out hunger in our community.
March of Dimes-March for Babies
4/28-
After the food drive, I headed over to the Gonzaga campus to walk in the March for Babies. This is the second year I have walked with my friend, Angee Lawhorns' team. It's always both inspiring and sad to see the many families who have been effected by premature birth. It is so important to continue to fund research to help prevent premature birth, as well as help those babies who are born premature live healthy, happy lives.
Moses Lake dance rehearsal
5/5-
Today I got to spend time with a few of my pageant sisters and director rehearsing for the Moses Lake Spring Festival. We had a great time learning the routine and chatting over lunch.
