On Sunday, October 24th, the Royal Court and I attended the Trunk-or-Treat event at the Moose Lodge. We helped hand out hot dogs, chips, cookies and juices to all of the families that came. It was so much fun to see all of the awesome costumes the kids, parents and pets were wearing. Even though it was a little chilly, it was a great turn out and a fabulous time! I would like to thank the Moose Lodge for sponsoring such a great event! I would also like to thank all of the people who volunteered to dress up their trunks and hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters.

I am so honored to be sponsored by Heartland Credit Union. I stopped by and chatted with them when I was a candidate and they were so friendly. As a candidate we have to write a commercial and perform it at our opening dinner, I did a talk show and Heartland Credit Union was so generous and gave the “studio audience ” a gift for during my talk show.

I was lucky and enjoyed sitting with them at the dinner, as well. I am so grateful for the support that Heartland Credit Union gives the Inver Grove Heights Scholarship Program. I know without the generosity of their sponsorship, this year would not be possible.

This past Thursday I met with my sponsor Tim from Drkula’s. I thanked him for sponsoring me throughout my candidacy as well as for his continued support now that I’ve been crowned. I also thanked him for the special shoutout they gave me on the reader board outside of Drkula’s. It was fun to see how excited he was about the Thank You gift we gave him. We printed some pictures from my candidacy and gave him some candy.

During my visit, Tim and I talked about all of the fun events coming up. I told him that we get to participate in the dog pawty at Heritage Park, the Halloween parade in Cottage Grove, the Boo Bash event at the Vets Center and the Trunk or Treat event at The Moose Lodge.

Last we talked about how much I was looking forward to bowling in the fall league. This will be my fifth year bowling with Drkula’s.

On Saturday the 18th, our royal family had the opportunity to attend Touch-a-Truck. It’s always so much fun to be apart of the Inver Grove Heights Parks and Recreation event. So many people came out to see all the trucks and I saw that so many of the kids were excited to be there. While walking around to all the trucks, I got to learn about each of the different trucks and what they were used for. Overall it was a great experience, not only for our royal family, but for the community to come together with each other.

Before completing two amazing years of being Miss Inver Grove Heights, I volunteered at River Heights Vineyard Church here in Inver Grove Heights with Loaves and Fishes. There, we prepared and served hot meals and provided snacks for those in the community who are in need of some food. Loaves and Fishes serves food out of River Heights Vineyard Church Monday-Thursday from 5:30-6:30pm. If you or someone you know is in need of food, Loaves and Fishes will welcome you with open arms! I enjoyed serving meals in our community and I look forward to the next time I volunteer with then!

Since my year is coming to an end, I wanted to thank one of the biggest support systems that I had these past two years. A big thank you to my sponsor the South Saint Paul and Inver Grove Heights Rotary Club for being my sponsor. I’m so thankful for all you guys do, and I hope that another person can get lucky enough to be sponsored by you, like I was. Thank you guys again.

I had the opportunity to do a final service project, a shoe drive, with three of my Royal sisters Amy, Ashley, and Autumn. We all collected shoes throughout our community and through people we know. I collected 569 pairs of shoes! All of these shoes will get donated and shipped overseas to woman, kids, and men. I think this was a good last service project to not only give back but to bless other people that don’t have things like we do. Nowadays we take so much for granted, everything that we have and don’t always think about the people that don’t have. Thank you to everyone who donated and it’s nice knowing that all of these shoes will go to a good cause!

* Today is your last chance to contribute! You can bring a pair of shoes or boots to the Coronation this afternoon at 4:30pm at the Performing Arts Center at Simley High School.

On Sunday, August 1st, my royal sisters and I attend the Little Canada’s Canadian Days parade. This parade was super fun. The weather was so nice and we had the opportunity to mingle with lots of royalty. Little Canada is such a cute town and I’d definitely do this parade again. I could not have asked for a better day!

I had my last official sponsor visit with Bruce at Quality Auto Care Center, but I plan to keep in touch! I am so grateful for Bruce’s continued support, not only for me, but for the entire program. Our program would not be possible without incredibly generous sponsors such as Quality Auto Care Center. I love being able to go down and talk to Bruce because he is such an amazing guy and such an amazing role model in our community and so many others. Thank you Bruce!

If your car needs repair, give Bruce a call!

On Monday, August 2, we had the opportunity to attend the Rice Street Coronation. They had 12 amazing candidates that we got to know very well over the last couple months and it was exciting to finally find out which lucky three girls would be crowned. They all did such and amazing job, the judges certainly had a hard choice! I really enjoyed hearing the candidates talk about what leadership skills they developed throughout candidacy. Hearing this reminded me of how much I have grown since my candidacy as well as how much growth I have seen in my fellow royalty and in participants of other programs. This program has had a major impact on my life and I am beyond grateful to continue growing alongside these other ambassadors. Finally, after the coronation, we enjoyed eating cookies, catching up with friends and other royalty groups, and snapping a picture with this royalty beautiful duck!
