Today we had the opportunity to attend the Leprechaun Days Parade in Rosemount. We had a great time seeing their community come together for a great festival. It was fun seeing other royalty including Farmington and The St Paul Winter Carnival! It was a beautiful sunny day and a such a wonderful parade.

On July 26th I completed my final service project as Miss Inver Grove Heights Princess. This service project involved me collecting donations of plastic bags from community members and then using them for a better purpose. I organized them and brought them to the Animal Humane Society in Woodbury. These bags then are reused for cleanup purposes for the animals in need. I collected over 150 bags and the workers were in aww at the donation. I’m glad to have been able to help out a local animal shelter!

On July 25th my royal sisters and I went to feed my starving children with all the candidates. We made up a cheer to yell after we finished packing a box. We packed 125 boxes and 27,000 meals, I had a really fun time volunteering at FMSC.

On Tuesday July 18, my Royal Family and I got to attend Sparkle Night at the Twins game. It was so fun to get to walk the field and our pictures were on the Jumbotron when we crossed home plate. It was my first Twins game ever. It was great seeing all the other Royal Families but my favorite part was after the game. I met a little girl at the train station who was so excited to meet a princess and take a picture with me. I loved seeing how happy she was.

The Inver Grove Heights Royalty attended the Farmington Dew Days Parade. We got to meet many people before greeting the town of Farmington. We visited the Klondike Kate’s, Aquatenial, Army men, and the Fire Chief. It was such a blast to be apart of Farmington’s festivities!!

Tonight we had the opportunity to attend the Rice Street Festival Kick off Dinner. This event gave me, Kristi and other surrounding communities the chance to meet the new Rice Street Festival candidates as well as celebrate the current royalties past year. This event was a wonderful dinner at Ideal Hall and an overall enjoyable evening. It was great to socialize with surrounding communities royalty programs as well as support the Rice Street Festival! I’m excited for the festivities to begin and can’t wait to find out who is crowned!

For my second service project I was able to help out with Flags for Fort Snelling and put out the flags on Memorial day. My mom’s great uncle was killed in action during the Korean war, but he wasn’t found and buried for 58 years, so this was special to my family to be able to honor the military people. I also have my uncle and great grandma buried at Fort Snelling. I invited some family and friends to help with the event. It was a great experience seeing all the people that came out to help and being able to honor to the heroes who have fallen for our freedom.

On Thursday, June 1st, my royal sisters Ally, Megan and I were able to attend the South St Paul Kaposia Days Candidate Showcase. It was really fun the candidates had to make a dish and give the recipe, for something from their heritage or childhood. My favorite was the gingersnaps and the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. It was fun seeing all the other royal families again.
