On November 2 and 3, I spoke at two more Rotary Clubs: Brooklyn Park Rotary and Plymouth Rotary. I enjoy shedding light on the Miss America Organization's dedication to service through its support of over 12,000 individual service platforms each year, like my platform of Autism Awareness, and through its national partnership with the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Thank you to everyone at Brooklyn Park Rotary and Plymouth Rotary who purchased my lullaby CD, Sweet Dreams, to support the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals! The proceeds of this CD go to children receiving medical treatment at Gillette Children's Hospital, where I volunteer weekly. To purchase a CD or make a free standing donation, visit my CMN Hospitals page.
After speaking with the members of Plymouth Rotary Club on Thursday, I met with Randy from one of our great Miss Minnesota sponsors, Water Billboards. Randy will be helping me with an autism awareness project for the spring. Thank you, Randy, for offering your quality, green products to be used to not only help the environment, but also to increase awareness of Autism Spectrum Disorder. I can't wait to design some fabulous "water billboards!"
On Friday and Saturday, I spent some quality time with the Miss Mankato contestants, rehearsing the opening number and getting ready for interview. Thank you to the Miss Mankato committee and to those who volunteered as mock judges that day for taking the time to hold a mock interview to help me prepare for Miss America! I am so excited for the Miss Mankato pageant this Saturday, November 12. We have a fantastic group of bright, beautiful and talented contestants this year. And...my brother Trevor will be performing as a special guest! It's going to be a great show, so make sure you come! For more information, go to www.missmankato.org.
On Tuesday, I had a fitting at Glitz Gowns at Mall of America for an upcoming fashion show hosted by Fraser, a program that provides support to individuals with ASD of all ages. Be sure to come support the cause on November 19! Glitz is also a fabulous sponsor of the Miss Minnesota Organization. Each year, the Miss Minnesota contestants have the opportunity to appear in a fashion show, which is recorded and replayed in their store (I saw myself on their store television when I was there the other day! So fun!). Thank you so much to Glitz for supporting two causes I care deeply about!
On Tuesday evening, I headed to David and Rod's house for another great mock interview. Thank you, David, Rod, Barb, and Ann for taking the time to help me prepare for the job of Miss America.
I have another busy week ahead! Stay tuned! And thanks for checking in!
