On November 3, we were so honored to be able to attend Crowning Achievements. Crowning Achievements is a great program that gets to crown those with disabilities. We had so much fun getting to know the candidates and meeting other visiting royalty.

For my first service project, I collected items for Cory’s Closet at Simley High School. During the month of October, I gathered clothes and hygiene products. Cory’s Closet is a set up in the nurse’s office that helps provide products to students who need help at the moment. In total I collected over 700 items. Thank you to Cub Foods for donating 137 grocery bags. A special thank you to Dr. Tandon at Southridge Dental for donating 24 bags full of toothpaste, toothbrushes, and flosses. I had fun collecting everything and it was a wonderful feeling when I brought everything in.

Our first parade was an absolute success! Everyone defines success in a different way, but in this case I would consider it a success because we ended up winning second place for our floats creativity! We were so close to first, but we lost the first place title to a group of ladies dressed up as State Fair food so I don’t feel too bad. I think they had an amazing idea! Everyone looked great so I feel like we are blessed to have won anything! Also, this last weekend was a success due to the fact that we got to meet some surrounding royalty, and make friends with them! We met the princesses from Cottage Grove’s Strawberryfest as well as the Hammond Heartland Days princesses. Our first parade was so delightful!

On October 19th, the Miss Inver Grove Heights Royal Family went to the Inver Glen Library to help out with the event going on. At this event, the kids were making halloween themed gingerbread houses. We helped the kids open the frosting and gave them their candy to place on the house they created. It was a lot of fun and it was nice to meet everyone who came. Thank you Friends of the Inver Glen Library for letting us come out and help.

On October 13th the Miss Inver Grove Heights Royalty went to Gertens for Pumpkin Fest. We helped greet people, paint pumpkins, play games, pass out apples, and helped with the bouncy house. We had a lot of fun talking and meeting a lot of people. Thanks to Gertens for having us and letting us help out.

On Sunday September 9th, the Royal Court and I ventured out for our first event! It was so exciting, we traveled up and down Cahill exploring all the amenities that our beautiful city has to offer. We started in front of Aldi with the car show and worked our way past the animal show, which was hands-down my favorite part of the day. Not only did we get to see the adorable dogs (and guinea pig!) but it was our first time introducing ourselves as the Royal Court of Inver Grove Heights. Another favorite part of the day was seeing all the children’s excitement when they saw the new princesses! It was so cute, we made their day just by speaking to them and taking a picture. I can’t wait to see what this year has in store for us!

Without the generous support of my sponsor I would not be able to be apart of this amazing program. My sponsor, Hometown Meats, has done so much for me. The owners Rob and Robin, have supported me throughout my year and I owe so much to them. Meeting with them and thanking him for such an incredible year was so fun. There are truthfully no words to describe Rob’s generosity to the City of Inver Grove Heights and to me. Knowing Rob and his family has been a privilege. Thank you so much for your support.
