January oh January.

Happy New Year to all! January is proving to be an exciting month for us so far! Our first Candidate call was held on January 2nd and our second on the 5th. We are now proud to say we have 17 lovely young ladies taking part in the program as our candidates. We also attended a Chamber social on the 12th which proved to be an excellent networking opportunity. We met with both TRU's Dean of Students and Dean of Tourism as well as chatted with several council members and the lovely staff from the Chamber!

Reflecting

November and December were quite exciting months, we volunteered at Basic's for Babies and met some hardworking volunteers. We got to partake in the Santa Clause Parade where we drove in Smith Chevrolet Cadillac's 1961 Cadillac Eldorado, the same make that Johnny Cash rode in 1962. We also went to the Chase Parade and got to meet some of the citizens of that great Village. Just as the parade was starting, the Chase Royalty's float left without them! After the parade, we met up with the Chase Royalty and candidates for a warm bowl of chilli and a great game of charades, in which my team won!

Can't wait to see what January has in store!

Our royalty have been to numerous pageants including Lytton, Barriere, Oliver, Kelowna, Peachland, Logan Lake and White Rock among others. The girls have said it has been an amazing experience representing Kamloops thus far and are looking forward to what 2011 has to offer.
