Editor,
I’d like to send out a heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped and supported me throughout my Miss Montana Teen experience. A special thank you goes out to my sponsors: Ninepipes Lodge, Stuart’s Service Center, Ninepines Art Group, Leon Club, Mission Valley Properties, Charlo Grocery, J & K Salon and Land Solutions; your financial donations made my journey possible.
Additionally, I would like to thank my inspiring coach, Casey Popran of Northwest Entertainment Agency; Bonnie Clary, for making all my clothes fit perfectly; my supportive family, grandparents, friends and everyone who sent me supportive messages and cheered me on.
I am honored to have made it to the final five and to be chosen for the academic award and scholarship. I’m thankful for the opportunity to have met so many new friends and I wish the new Miss Montana titleholders all the best in their exciting year ahead.
