Hello!
Last week I had another successful, busy week presenting in Courtland, Minneapolis, Chapman, Manhattan, Andover, Pretty Prairie, Phillipsburg, & Logan. I am in a different city daily and giving 4-6 presentations a day as well.... it is awesome!
Monday night I was in Emporia for the first annual Kansas Festival of Christmas Trees. While signing autographs at the mall, I met two wonderful women who are huge fans of the Miss America Organization; I could have stayed and chatted with them all evening! I then went to the ESU women's basketball game where I helped recognize Emporia State's president, Michael Lane.
Just to give you a taste of my schedule... After leaving Emporia at 8:45, I hit the road and arrived in Minneapolis at 11:00, worked out and followed up on my current events. I was in bed at 12:45, woke up at 7:00, and arrived in Manhattan at 9:30. I left Manhattan at 2:00, hit the road again, was in Wichita for a meeting at 4:30, and a meeting at 5:30. I then left Wichita close to 9:00, and arrived in Kansas City at midnight. It just keeps on going....
Stay tuned for the reality show which will air on Friday, January 4 at 7pm CST on TLC. There will be an episode every Friday leading up to Miss America Live on January 26 in Las Vegas.
I hope your Christmas shopping is well under way - only 18 days left!!
Regards,
Alyssa
