Hello hello!

Well Happy Memorial Day!! Over the years my time has been spent at the park watching the fireworks with family while we celebrate the lives of the many soldiers who fight to keep us protected and free. On this particular day I spent a portion of it stuffing "Read to Achieve" packets for students during their summer break. Hopefully, those munchkins will put the materials to good use;0). They really are very intelligent kids and I'm glad the Read to Achieve program is getting them excited about reading.

This month took me to Augusta, Georgia where I continued auditions for the Miss Black Georgia USA pageant which is to be held in November. I met a young lady with a beautiful jazz voice that is sure to wow the stage.

Also preparations for the pageant have been coming along smoothly. My music is ready, wardrobe is finished, and training goals have almost been met. I'm excited!! Just to think this time next month I could have a new title.......we'll just have to see now won't we;o).

The end of this month will mark a huge step in recruitment for the Miss Black Georgia USA organization. I will be heading to Valdosta, Macon, and Albany all before June 1! Not to mention some of the other events scheduled. Very exciting. Welp, duty calls and I must answer so until next......

.......Be Blessed!!!
