busy, busy, busy!

Well, I am very happy to say that I have made it through the busiest week of my life! On May 3rd, the Miss Kamloops candidates presented their prepared speeches and did an AMAZING job. I'm so proud of each and every one of you and I'm so happy that I had the opportunity to teach your speech classes. May 4th was the Inaugural SIFE Thompson Rivers Gala where we presented our Nationals presentation to our program partners, alumni, friends and family. For a first time event, it was a great success and I look forward to being a part of the event in years to come. May 5th was the Kamloops Fusion Rotaract Murder Mystery which was also a great success! Being a part of the organizing committee was so much fun and I was so pleased with the turn out of the event. May 6th we departed for ACE Canada Nationals in Calgary. Our team has worked tremendously hard this year and being able to present to judges and other SIFE teams about what our team has accomplished was such an honor. Although we didn't make the top 5 teams, we won our opening round pool putting us as one of the top 10 SIFE teams in Canada - truly amazing. 

Being involved in so many wonderful community organizations is such an honor. It shows that Kamloops is a community that is fueled by volunteerism and a community that I am so proud to represent.

Now it's back to the grind and preparing for the British Columbia Ambassador Program. I will be looking for events to promote the program and also other fundraising initiatives until August. Please feel free to support me as People's Choice Ambassador. http://www.bcambassador.com/peoples-choice-ambassador
