One thing I’ve been BLESSED with from January 2008 – now is to serve my communities as Mrs. Illinois United States and act as an advocate for Illinois Children’s Health – with Congressman Bill Foster on National Health Insurance for kids in need (needed more now than ever), reforming the No Child Left Behind Act, and educating those families at risk in our community about healthy living for their bodies, minds, spirits and our earth. I guess you can say my ‘platform’ as Mrs. Illinois grew quite a bit with all the people I’ve met these last 13 months. ;-)
If you haven’t been in contact already with John Vanatta and the Vanbos crew, I highly suggest just talking with them about participating in the 2009 pageant this May. (I even have some extra packets in hand, or you can use their Internet forms) I am very impressed with their organization and attention to the pageant delegate, Illinois is lucky to have our new directors!
The 2009 pageant is a truly professional setup – very close to what I experienced on a national level (except we can share our overnight room with our husbands… tee hee) – I’m very much looking forward to meeting their delegates for 2009 at the Historic Dixon Theatre May 10th – and I hope I can meet some of you "Blog reading" ladies there too.
