Sponsor Visit: Heartland Credit Union

On Friday March 28th I went to visit my sponsor Heartland Credit Union. I chatted with Vanessa and Bella and learned that Bella was a junior princess of her town growing up! I brought some photos of recent events we’ve attended that I’ve seen Heartland volunteering at as well.  They let me see how heavy the door for safety deposit boxes is, it’s heavier than you’d think!I’m grateful to Heartland for sponsoring me and this program!

Service Project: Inver Glen Senior Living

I completed my first community service project by volunteering several times at Inver Glen Senior Living. This is an independent living, assisted living, and memory care home for Inver Grove Height’s seniors. I volunteered by spending time with the residents’ playing games and socializing with them.  The home also has a dog for the residents named, Tuxedo. I enjoyed getting to know them and learning how spending quality time is important.   I look forward to continuing volunteering here.

On Sunday, March 9th, my royal sisters and I went to Eagan’s FunFest Bowling Fundraiser. We had such a great time bowling and talking to Woodburys royal court, Saint Paul Junior Winter Carnival royal court, and the St Paul Winter Carnival. It was really fun to bond with everyone and share some laughs along the way. I also enjoyed getting to help Jasmine Little Miss Princess bowling, I even got to help her get a spare!

Great job Jasmine! We were all so excited to see you get a spare! The atmosphere was very positive, and the friendly competition made it even better. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and I’m so glad we got to be part of it!

Service Project: Bluebirds and Blooms

For my first service project as Miss Princess of Inver Grove Heights, I collected 63 cans and 6 glass jars for Bluebirds and Blooms to use for floral arrangements for hospice patients. I cleaned each one, removed the labels, and prepared them for reuse. Knowing these flowers will bring joy to others made this project especially meaningful to me.
