March Madness!

The beginning of March has proved to be an exciting time for the Kamloops Royalty. Along with getting  acquainted with our 14 beautiful 2011 candidates we are honoured to have our  very own Miss Kamloops, Paris Sanesh, running for the position of a British Columbia Ambassador this August! We wish her the best of luck in her endeavors and  donations to help her along her exciting journey can be made at any of our upcoming events! We spent a weekend in western spirits at The Kamloops Cowboy Festival hosted at the Kamloops Convention Center (March 11th-13th) where we had the opportunity to listen to and enjoy local western talents and artists. The royalty has also been busy collecting donations for our upcoming fashion show. Again we are overwhelmed by the generosity of our local businesses! We will continue to stay busy with all of our upcoming events! Fashion Show April 9th, Speech April 28th and Entertainment Night May 12th. Hope to see you all there!

An end to February

February wasn't a very busy month but it sure was fantastic! On the third we left for the Queen Silver Star Excellence Program Pageant in the beautiful city of Vernon and had an amazing time! We squeezed in some shopping, and congratulated the new queen silver star, Aksana Skrinnikoff and princess silver star Kaitlyn Chirkoff. We attended a Blazer Game on February 9th and had a wonderful time even though they didn't win! We also helped to decorate the Columbo Hall for a valentines day fund-raiser, on February 11th, making center pieces, spreading confetti and setting tables! It was a fantastic event! And really made me appreciate all the effort that goes in to a successful event! Next on our calendar was attending a 'chocolate social' at Bedford Manor on valentines day, we had a lovely time visiting with all the residents and had some delicious treats. Finally we attended Strykes for Tykes at Falcon Lanes on February 26th with counselor Dennis Walsh. We raised a lot of money, all while having a blast! February was a great month for us, Kamloops Royalty, and the city of Kamloops!
