Leona Valley Community Queens Pageant

This is a very very very late post... But if you follow me on FB then you know I've been crazy busy moving and finding a place to live (yes, in that order). And now life is full of wedding preparations for my brother's wedding in just 10 days!

In October 2012, I was contacted about restarting the Leona Valley Community Queens Program. It's a great program for young women in Leona Valley. It's all about community service, grace, poise and who will be the best ambassador for the community. I was Miss Leona Valley 2005 so, I know all about it (and I had a great helper). I was very excited and honored to be asked. It was such a good time working toward the day of the pageant and encouraging the contestants.

Christie Klein and Rachel Bartfai ran for Miss Leona Valley. Olivia Bosma ran for Jr. Miss Leona Valley. Follow to the end to see who won! Enjoy the photos!
