September Time!

Well, summer fun is over and fall has begun! I had a great summer...went on a fantastic vacation with my family, had fun seeing friends I have made at several pageants, a bake sale, kids activities, the fair etc.!

Now I have started my sophomore year of high school and back at dance and drill team practices and performances...but the MOST exciting thing coming up is "Walk to Defeat ALS" on September 25th.

This is a 5 mile walk that helps to raise money for people in our community affected by ALS, known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. This will be my second year walking as Co-Captain with my Uncle Mark in memory of my Aunt Betty.

This year I have also been asked to speak before the walk and share my story of my aunt, my platform as Miss Moses Lake's Outstanding Teen and my experiences helping to raise awareness of ALS.

If you would like to visit my personal fundraising page, please go to:

You are all welcome to join me at the walk! Hope to see you there!
