To Whom It May Concern

I would like to share my experience with you during pageant week at MCI 2002. The ten days were absolutely wonderful and it was an opportunity that I would gladly take part in again, if I ever had the chance. Pageant week was about more then just the crown, it was about meeting new people, visiting interesting places, and learning about yourself. Even though I didn't walk away with the crown pageant that night... I felt like I walked away with something even more important...wonderful memories that I wouldn't trade for the world, and new friends that I continue to stay in touch with.

I would like to thank the chaperones who definitely acted as second mom's, they were always easy to talk to and would help you when ever you needed it. Us girls were fed very well, I can't think of a moment when anyone was left hungry - we always had a good supply of food waiting for us.

Everyday was a new adventure, and I continue to look back at the experience with great pride.

Thank you MCI for an amazing pageant week - an experience that I will never forget.

Sincerely,
Barbara
