Hi, my name is Lonna and I am contestant 9

Workshop this weekend was amazing. I met so many talented and individual girls. I am so happy that I got to talk to Kaitlin Monte and Claire Buffie; two women who seem to have endless ways to inspire me. Every day I seem to find myself more and more. Thank you both for being the amazing women you are and never allowing anyone to change you. If I could fill at least one of your very large shoes I would be happy with myself. Words can't say how much I love this organization. I love all of my sisters and I pray for my sister who could not be there today due to an accident. We are all here for you!

Workshop!

This weekend I will be going to Staten Island to take part in the Miss New York 2012 workshop.  I am so excited to meet my new sisters and find out what order we will go in! 

For more info on this year's Miss New York pageant, visit their website at www.missny.org When you're there grab a couple tickets or comment below with your email address if you are interested in buying ad space in this year's program book.  You can advertise your business to individuals from all over the state, or you can just give me a shoutout!

Either way, I hope you are all sending me your love and support and I look forward to posting pictures for you.  Keep an eye out on my twitter page, @LonnaLu  lots of pictures to be posted there in real time.

Lots of Love,

Lonna

Girls Night Out

I had an absolutely wonderful time last night at Crisis Services' annual event "Girls Night Out." This event donates to the Haven House (Buffalo's shelter for battered women) and the Crisis Services office and hotline that took over 6,000 calls last year alone.

I was surprised with the opportunity to model an outfit by a generous sponsor (and one of my favorite stores) TJ Maxx. I had such a wonderful time and made a couple close friends who care for the same cause as me. I love that the Miss America Organization gives me the opportunity to reach out and do these types of events. Hopefully some more things in the works with Crisis Services. Have a wonderful Easter!
