On February 13th the Miss Clinton County board, Miss Clinton County, and Miss Clinton County's Outstanding Teen held the very first Princess Program at Bemis Pavilion. We were joined by four sweet and rambunctious little girls: Jenna, Bella, Natalia, and Kenzie. The Princess Program is designed to be a mentoring program between the princesses and the titleholders. Both sides benefit from this exciting and fun relationship. The program is designed for girls who are looking to improve upon skills that promote self-confidence and poise and find mentoring from today’s young leaders.
The girls had a packed day full of Community Service, Arts & Crafts, Lunch, and More! Each little girl received a tiara and decorated her own sash for her crowning moment. It's surprising in how such a short period of time a little girl can teach you so much and touch your heart. Each second with these little girls your eyes are opened to a whole new world. To them, we are role models and mentors. To us, they are inspiration, motivation, and teachers. Together we grow. Together we have a blast! The next few months together will go by extremely fast.
The end of the month was filled with local pageants. February 20th housed Miss Johnson County and February 21st was Miss Burlington. I attended Miss Johnson County with the Miss Clinton County Board as well as my Alpha Chi Omega little Katie Markey. We had an absolute blast. The next day, I traveled with Miss Iowa, Taylor Wiebers, to Burlington. Sunday was a day full of singing, laughing, and fun. Congratulations to Christy Scimeca, Halie Struecker, Paige Siegworth, and Ally Markey on their titles.
The last thing I want to leave you with, is to be yourself no matter what someone else thinks. If they dislike you, most likely they are jealous. Always continue to be the best you every single day whether that be at school, with your friends, or with yourself. Remember, you have to live with yourself. They do not. So why would you want to be anyone other then who you are? Being different is more fun. Be Original. Be Unique. BE YOU!
