On Sunday, November 17, 2019 my royal sisters and I went to see the grand opening of the IGH Fire Station #2. I was excited to see the new fire station because it is only 2 miles from my house. This will be a great addition to my neighborhood because we don’t have fire hydrants where I live. I learned that the IGH Fire Department has 2 tanker trucks to fight these types of fires. My favorite part of the day was the nooks and crannies tour with fire fighter Tony Kautz. It was neat to see the hose drying and training tower which is not only used to dry hoses from floor to ceiling, but also used to teach fire fighters how to enter confined spaces.

Service Project – Inver Grove Heights Princess
November 20, 2019 by
For my first service project as the 2020 Inver Grove Heights Princess, I decided that I wanted to make tie blankets for the adults and children that are at and will be at the Gillette’s Children’s Hospital. Over the span of a month I collected fleece donations and went out and bought fleece on my own to make these blankets. I would like to say a special thank you to Diane Rechtzigel and Debbie Heymans for their generous donations. I had to follow specific measurements to make these blankets so that they would be perfect for the patients receiving them. My mother and I spent time cutting and tying 15 blankets. It took quite a while but it definitely payed off and I am so excited that many people will be able to enjoy these blankets, I hope they make their stay a little more comfortable.

On November 2nd, my royal family and I had the opportunity to attend the crowning achievements pageant. There we met the new crowning Achievements court and a wide variety of ambassadors from surrounding cities. It was beautiful hearing about the ambitions and talents each contestant had and I cherished seeing the joy on each one of their faces when they were crowned. I hope to see their joyful personalities at another event soon!

Boo Bash

My Royal Court and I went to Boo Bash. We got to interact with kids at the arts and crafts table. We got to work the bounce house and dance danced as well as played games with the kids on the dance floor. I got to see all of the cool costumes that the kids were wearing. This event was fun to interact with kids and see their creativity for Halloween. I wanted to thank everyone that put that event together.

Junior Princess Sponsor Visit
October 24, 2019 by
I met with my sponsor Greg Kuntz, with Remax Results on Friday, October 18. We talked about ideas that I could do for my community service projects. We also talked about some of the events we have already participated in and our upcoming events. My sponsor knows a lot about the Royalty life as he was previously King Boreas with the Winter Carnival. He has spoken at many Royal events in surrounding communities and loves to teach the candidates the proper parade wave. I am thankful to have a sponsor that understands the commitment and can help guide me as I learn my role this year.

Good Samaritan Spaghetti Dinner
October 19, 2019 by
On Thursday, October 10th, my court and I visited Good Samaritan to help serve at their spaghetti dinner fundraiser, We were able to greet the public, seat them at tables, and then serve them their meal. I loved being able to serve the community while also spending time with my court and others in the city. Seeing friendly faces walk through the door made my night and showed me that we have such a strong community and we are always willing to help each other out. I had a wonderful evening and I look forward to working with Good Samaritan in the future.
