Emceeing the NAMI Walk Kick Off Event

Greg (R) is the organizer for the  Colorado NAMI Walk. He asked me to be the emcee for the kick off event. I was honored to do so. Nichol (L) is who came up with the tag line "Taking the ugly out of mental illness." I look forward to working with both to have a successful walk. If you would like to donate or participate, please go to my Walker Page.

Lacy is the director for NAMI Colorado. She works tirelessly for those with mental illness and their families.

Friend and fellow queen, Tanya, Mrs. Colorado Galaxy, helped emcee. She made a lovely "Vanna" as we gave away gifts at the end of evening. Matt is from the Mental Health Network. We support each other's efforts to help those with mental illness.

This gentleman is at most events. He has such a passion for helping others. I look forward to seeing him again.

Wounded to Wow

I recently had the honor of being the guest of Brenda Baecker at a womens meeting. Brenda shared her amazing and inspirational story of how God used pageantry to take her from wounded to wow. Brenda is Mrs. Colorado International 2008. She passed the crown on to me in 2009 and we have been good friends and pageant sisters ever since. If you would like to have Brenda come speak to your group, contact her at mrscoint08@hotmail.com.

Outstanding Scouter 2010

I received the Outstanding Scouter Award again for Troop 794, Arapahoe District. This is the second time I have received this prestigious award for Boy Scouts. The first time I received it I was a Cub Scout leader. This time I received it for my dedication and service to the Boy Scouts. I do give about 6 hours a week to Scouting. As an adult leader and merit badge councilor, my goal is to encourage young men to achieve the rank of Eagle Scout. Yes, I do take the uniform off at night. 

Miss Colorado Preteen Pageant

I recently attended the Miss Preteen Colorado Pageant with two friends, E-Dee (L) and Tanya (R). They are the newly crowned Colorado Galaxy Queens. It was so much fun to sit with them. This was also my first formal appearance as Beauties of America Colorado's 40's.

One of the wonderful things about pageants is all the amazing friendships that are formed. Both of these young ladies attended to cheer on friends. I love these girls!!!

I had the honor of being at Katelyn's crowning as the emcee for the Colorado Coed pageant. I was so inspired by this pageant that I wanted to compete in a system that is divided by age categories, too. This is why I a competing at Beauties of America.

Congratulations to Rylee, the new Miss Colorado Outstanding Sweetheart. I also met her through the Colorado Coed pageant. She is so energetic and always has a smile on her face!

Congratulations go out to my client, Ashley. She won best essay and Fabulous Face as well as placing 2nd runner up!! Way to go, Ashley!!!
