2018 Common Sense with Seniors

On Thursday, July 26th, my royal sisters and I attended the Common Sense Seniors fishing trip with this year’s Miss IGH candidates. There were a few extra poles so some of the girls tried fishing. They caught a few fish, but most just stole the bait. It was a small turnout due to the weather, but it was still fun!

2018 Town Square Television

On Monday my royal sisters and I filmed a segment about our scholarship program with Town Square Television. In our portion of the programming, we talked about the history of our program, the candidacy process, and our goal of “making a difference in the lives of young women” by building our personal skills such as speaking, interviewing, and minding our image presentation, as well as teaching us the value of service to others. The candidates were also at the event, and had the opportunity to introduce themselves and talk a little bit about their interests and why they want to be a part of our program. It has been fun getting to know all of the candidates, and I’m excited to see what the rest of the year has in store!

2018 Jr Princess Service Project

For my second service project, I donated to the Animal Humane Society in Woodbury. I went door to door in my neighborhood to collect items from the AHS wish list. I collected  eight bags full of old towels, blankets, Kleenex, paper towels, and pet food. My mom helped me get 1,200 newspapers from the St. Paul Pioneer Press, and the AHS employees were very excited to see them all! I am so glad to have helped the animals by donating to the AHS.

2018 Service Project Miss Queen

For my second service project, I completed Relay for Life with my school! With my team, “Got Hope” we raised money for the American Cancer Society. I raised $200 towards my team’s goal of $1000. My school’s goal was $10,000, which we successfully raised! Aside from raising money, we spent the night at our school, on the turf, pulling an all-nighter, to signify that cancer never sleeps. It was so fun to rally with my friends and school, and get together with community members who are suffering or are survivors of cancer. I can not wait to volunteer with Relay for Life again, to honor those that I do and don’t know who are suffering from cancer

2018 Little Princess Sponsor Visit

On August 2nd, 2018 I visited my sponsor CBL Floors for the 2nd and final time. I gave my sponsor a Hershey bar for a gift as a Thank You for sponsoring  me. This was an added Thank You to my prior gift of a framed picture of when I was crowned and a candy dish. It was really fun to see my framed picture on their show room floor. I learned that my sponsor is really fun and supportive. They were there at my coronation when I was crowned and were really fun and nice to work with. It is really funny, that while visiting I learned I love hard wood floors!

2018 Service Project

As Little Miss Princess I finished up my 2nd service project. My service project was to collect hats, gloves, scarfs, winter coats and blankets to donate to the local Inver Grove Heights Fire Department. For a month I picked up donations from supporters in the community. After collecting everything I organized them into bins. I then delivered them to the fire department and helped carry in. The donations will be used throughout the community for families in need during the winter and fall cold months of Minnesota. I learned to be kind and give up things for people in need. I understand that families need help and don’t always have everything when they are having a hard time. I enjoyed doing this because I know that these items will be used for the good of the community. Visiting the fire station was lots of fun to see and I enjoyed meeting all the different fire fighters that work hard for our community to keep it safe.
Thank You,
Little Miss Princess Cheyanne
  

2018 Pan O Prog

On July 14th my Miss Inver Grove Heights royalty family went to their Pan O Prog parade. We went to an early event for visiting royalty and had lunch. We took pictures will all the royalty from other cities. After that we did their BIG parade and their was lots of people with new faces to see. It was a lot of fun to meet all the new people who support us and talk with all the royalty families. The parade was interesting because it was so long and there were lots and lots of people to wave at.
Thank You,

2018 Jr Princess Service Project

For one of my service projects, I helped Neighbors, a social service agency providing emergency and supportive services in northern Dakota County. I collected more than 20 bags of clothes and shoes for their thrift store, The Clothes Closet, and about 10 bags of food and toiletries for the food shelf. I also volunteered for four hours at the food shelf, labeling all the food that came in, and four hours at the Clothes Closet, putting tags on clothes.
