Philly Trip
Ever since my crowning on June 3rd, life has been crazy. The following week was ‘Senior Week’ so I focused on graduation before I stepped into my role as Miss Maine. A month and several appearances later, it has finally hit me that I am on my way to Miss America!
I just got back from the ‘Miss Maine Invitational’ trip from Philadelphia and had a wonderful time! Miss Connecticut, Miss Rhode Island and I were invited for a weekend to Valerie Clemens’ home in PA. (Valerie is the President of the Miss Maine Organization).
On Friday, we all went down to Atlantic City to visit the Miss America office. I had the pleasure of meeting the staff and getting the tour of the Miss America portraits, archives and displays. And what a coincidence- Miss America 2006, Jennifer Berry was in town! She joined us at the office and we ate cake in celebration of her birthday. Star struck, we carried on and visited the Atlantic City boardwalk. After having fun at the 100th anniversary of Planter’s Peanuts and enjoying the beautiful beach, we headed back for the night.
The following day the girls and I had a couple of appearances. We performed our talents at Melmark (along with a few special guests!) then went straight to the Habitat for Humanity house dedication, where we also had the chance to perform and meet all of the appreciative families. We went back to Valerie’s for a night of mock interviews, talent evaluations and a nice dinner with her friends.

On Sunday, we performed at Sunrise Assisted Living, then sadly, Miss Rhode Island and Miss Connecticut left for home. The rest of the week, I had the opportunity to shop in Philly and NYC for my Miss America wardrobe. I also had appearances at Benchmark Summer Camp, ESF Dream Camp, Sunrise, and the Ronald McDonald house. But there was no better way to end a great week than to go on a segway tour around Philly. What a beautiful city!

It’s funny that after just one week, my confidence in speaking and performing as Miss Maine has grown. I have a better grasp of what to do, and feel ready for the exciting year ahead of me!
