Miss Tecumseh 2013: Girl Guides Meeting

On January 20th, first runner up, Jillian Parent, and I were invited to a Girl Guides meeting to speak to the girls. Back in October, I met these ladies at the Fire Prevention Week. When I was asked to come talk to the girls I was so excited! I was a girl guide back in the day and I remember loving every minute of it. Jill and I worked together and agreed on what we would talk about and what activities we would do with the girls. We started off with a get to know you game which included an 'Interview' round. We asked the girls simple questions to get to know them a little better. We then talked about ourselves and our community involvement, the Miss Tecumseh Pageant, and a little about being Miss Tecumseh. We emphasized the importance of getting involved in your community and being confident in yourself. The girls then had a chance to interview us and ask us anything they wanted. Jill and I demonstrated our "Fashion Wear" and had the girls walk with some styling accessories. I was really impressed with how confident these girls were with their walks! We had so much fun strutting our stuff that the girls kept asking to do it again. The girls then created their own crowns with glitter glue, bedazzles, and princess stickers which all turned out beautifully! I had an absolute blast with these wonderful young ladies! We might even have some future Miss Tecumseh contestants in this bunch!
