Although I have already attended 4 local pageant since being crowned Miss Idaho back in June, this was going to be the first where I was emceeing the pageant. I was very excited for this, especially since my fellow emcee was Miss Boise 2009 Meg Rowe, one of the most hilarious people I have ever met! I was able to meet with Sue (the local director) and all the contestants on Friday during their general rehearsal. It was so much fun to help Sue put together the little gifts for the girls, volunteers and judges, and mingle with the contestants. I forgot how much fun the rehearsals for locals are!
Saturday afternoon I headed back over to the school to run through my performance on stage, go through the script with Meg, and help out with anything else that I could. The pageant was amazing! All the contestants were fantastic, and it was great to see Amanda Richey, Miss Meridian 2009 and 1st runner up at Miss Idaho, and Kylie Kofoed, Miss Ada County 2009 and 2nd runner up at Miss Idaho, perform and give away their titles! They are both such incredible women and wonderful examples of what the Miss Idaho Scholarship Organization is about! Congrats to the new Miss Meridian 2010, Genevieve Nutting, and Miss Ada County 2010, Rylie McClellan! They are both going to be incredible at Miss Idaho in June, which believe it or not, is less than 9 months away! Time is definitely flying by!
Allof the Miss Meridian contestants, Miss Meridian Little Sisters, Amanda Richey (Miss Meridian 2009), Kylie Kofoed (Miss Ada County), Meg Rowe (Miss Boise) and myself during the intermission!
Well, from here I'm off to Kansas for the National Farm Bureau Federation Promotion and Education Conference! Have a Happy Fall!
Warmest Regards,
Kara
