Paxton Keeley Elementary School

I had a great day on Friday visiting Paxton Keeley Elementary School! I was able to visit with over 200 students in Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade and 4th grade and remind them of how important it is to exercise, eat right, and get enough sleep.  Thank you to Mrs. Thelen, Mrs. Wright, Mr. Welty, Mrs. Schmidt, Mrs. Abram, Mrs. Burks, Mrs. Redman, and Mrs. Scott for allowing me the opportunity to meet with your delightful students!

My Little Princess

I was so excited tonight to meet Katelynn! She will be going with me to Miss Missouri this year as my little Princess!  The Princess program is a part of the Miss Missouri Outstanding Teen program where each contestant can mentor a little girl and share Miss Missouri week with them. What an adorable little girl! I look forward to getting to know her and sharing this experience with her.

Russell School Visit

I had a great day today speaking to 1st, 2nd and 4th graders at my alma mater, Russell Elementary School!  We talked about ways to exercise, eating right, and getting enough sleep.  Here are some of the classes that I visited.

Fitness Fun Day!!

I am so pleased to announce that I will be doing another Fitness Fun Day!  This event is to promote my platform on fitness and fun to kids ages 5 - 11. Miss Missouri, Jessica Hartman and Miss Missouri's Outstanding Teen, Charlee Bisch will be on hand for photos and to work with the kids! All of the proceeds go to Children's Miracle Network which benefits our local MU Women's and Children's Hospital.  The first 50 kids enrolled will receive a special logo sports bottle. A snack is provided for all kids attending.  I look forward to seeing you and your children at this FUN event!

Springfield Christmas Parade and Miss Joplin Pageant

I had a great weekend with all of my sister queens as we participated in the Springfield Christmas Parade and attended the Miss Joplin Pageant!  I'm so excited to get to work with this board and these amazing girls this year. It's going to be a great year!
