On my 23rd birthday I celebrated with good friends, Ronnie Weaver, Calsie Boyd, Alycia McCullough, and other pageant friends as I entertained and gave up my title of Miss Cambria County. Although I have already won another title and will be headed for Miss PA this summer, it was a bittersweet evening as I celebrated a phenomenal year of service.
In my farewell letter, I made sure to thank everyone who made my year a success. From my trip with my family, Alycia, and the Weavers to Las Vegas for the Miss America pageant to my top 5 placement at Miss Pennsylvania, my year truly was a dream come true. Along the way, I had the incredible opportunity to make appearances on behalf of Boys and Girls Clubs as well as the Children's Miracle Network. The children I met through these experiences were constant reminders as to why I participate in this program and served as a source of encouragement in times of self-doubt.
To conclude a year that I will always cherish, I sang with the Miss Cambria County Little Princesses and made a final appearance as Miss Cambria County. It was a fun evening followed by some girl talk, pizza, and some tears :)
I thank Ronnie, Paul, and Deborah Weaver for a great weekend. I wouldn't have wanted to spend my birthday any other way:) Congratulations to Lucy Hazelet, Miss Richland, Carmen Bloom, Miss Greater Johnstown, and Tiffani Boyd, Miss Cambria County.
