Alices Service Project

 I collected supplies for foster puppies from English Springer Rescue America. I chose this service project because I have a 5-year-old Springer Spaniel named Charlie and I love helping animals. I had a donation box at Moose Lodge to collect training pads, collars, puppy toys, and blankets for the new litter. I received many wonderful donations for my service project including 264 training pads, 23 collars, 19 toys, 7 blankets, and many other needed items for the puppies. I delivered these donations to the puppies at their home in Rochester. I got to play with the puppies and hold them. They were so cute and sweet. Thank you to Jill Murphy Gaarder for helping me set up my service project. Thank you to Moose Lodge #1088 for hosting my donation box and to the members of the Moose for the donations. Thank you to the IGH community members, friends, and family that donated as well.

Music at the Grove

On Tuesday, my royal sisters and I attended the Inver Groove Music in the Park event at the VMCC turf. We danced along to the music of Todd ‘n’ Tina, helped greet families, and handed out freezies at the end of the event. We had so much fun!

Greta’s Service Project

I am so excited to share more about my second service project. I learned that a local food shelf gives out over 150 birthday bags a week to kids whose parents come to the food shelf for groceries. Each bag contains a box of cake mix, frosting, candles, napkins or plates, and party favors. My goal was to pack thirty bags. It took over two months but I just dropped off all thirty bags. I hope they can brighten a birthday child’s day.

Aquatennial Parade

We attended the aquatennial parade in downtown minneapolis. We had an exciting start to the event pulling a float in rush hour traffic. It was very cool to go under the minneapolis convention center to set up all the floats. we met with other royalty before the parade, and when it started we headed down Nicollet Mall. it was so fun going through the tall buildings and even had to stop for the light rail trains. we’re excited for the aquatennial candidates and wish them luck for the next year!

Twins Sparkle Night

My royal sisters and I attended the MN Twins Sparkle Night on Tuesday, July 23rd. Before the game we walked around the field with royalty from communities around the state and even Wisconsin. They introduced us and we were featured on the Jumbotron! We enjoyed the $1 hot dogs and had a great view of the game from our seats. Though the Twins lost in the ninth inning we still had a great time.

Raspberry Festival Parade

On 6/21/24 we went Hopkins Raspberry Festival. We meet many different royalties around the area. It started off with a pre parade brunch where we meet the new raspberry festival royalty. Then we walked around outside talking to other royalty and people. After that we went off on the parade it was so fun I had a BLAST!

Hopkins Coronation

On Thursday, July 18th my royal sisters and I got the pleasure of attending the Hopkins Raspberry Festival Coronation. We got to mingle and take photos with other royalty before the coronation. It was sad saying goodbye to the royalty going out, but we had fun getting to know them. We are so excited to become friends with the newly crowned. After the coronation was over they had a little after party with dessert and some fun dancing. We had a blast at this coronation and can’t wait to be in the Hopkins Raspberry parade!

Sincerely the 2024 Junior Miss Princess

Moose Lodge Meeting

This past Friday, we introduced ourselves and talked about our Scholarship Program to the Moose Lodge. People from the other Moose locations came to IGH and heard a little about the Moose Lodge 1088’s affiliation with our program. Thank you Moose Lodge for being my sponsor and partner with our program.
