This past weekend the Miss Arkansas Organization held the contestant lottery meeting, the Miss Arkansas Golf Tournament, and the contestant visit to Arkansas Children's Hospital. The contestant lottery meeting is when every contestant that is competing in Miss Arkansas pageant turns in her paperwork, has brunch, and decides which group they are in for the pageant. It was such a relief to have all of my paperwork turned in, but I'm so lucky to have an amazing director that turned it in for me to make it an even easier process! During the lottery, I was called near the beginning and I got to chose the exact spot that I wanted! I am in group C number 40! The Miss Arkansas pageant is the week of July 14-20. All of the contestants will arrive in Hot Springs on July 14. On July 17 the first night of preliminaries will begin. Since I am in group C, I will be competing in swimsuit and onstage question on Wednesday night, evening gown on Thursday night, and talent on Friday night. The top ten and Miss Arkansas will be announced on Saturday night! It was so much fun meeting all of the new contestants as well as seeing all of my sisters from last year.
This weekend all of the Miss Arkansas contestants also worked the Miss Arkansas Golf Tournament. We all got to help drive golf carts and work different holes at the tournament. We took so many fun pictures with Sloane at the golf tournament! This year we had a ball drop and Sloane got to ride in a helicopter to drop over a thousand balls! It was so much fun and a great new addition to the tournament! All of the contestants also got to make a visit to Arkansas Children's Hospital. All of the contestants got to tour the hospital, see some of the patients, and go inside Angel One helicopter! It was such a wonderful experience to see what all of the money we raise for Children's Miracle Network goes to in the hospital! We also all made cards for the children in the hospital! This past weekend was such a fun and exciting weekend with all of my Miss Arkansas sisters. I am so thankful for everything the Miss Arkansas Organization does for its contestants. A big thank you to Ms. Susie Morgan for making the golf tournament possible and to Mrs. Jane Slocum for making the Arkansas Children's Hospital tour possible for all of the contestants!
