Salt Lake Alzheimers Walk

Olivia - Miss Utah Jr. Teen, Brittney - Miss Utah, me - Rachel - Miss Utah Pre Teen, Kailee Jade - Miss Utah Jr. Pre Teen, and Aubree - Miss Utah Teen.
 It was an early September Saturday morning that we met for the "Walk to End Alzheimers". Luckily, 5 of the 6 sister queens were able to come:  We missed having Brindee with us.

 The event was held at the Capitol Building in Salt Lake City. I was glad to be here. Even though I do not have Alzheimers in my family, my great grandmother lived with dementia for several years before her passing. I know that it was hard for my family and my grandma. Hopefully this Walk that we helped with will somehow help others who have it or care for someone who has Alzheimers.

 We definitely met some interesting characters!


 We also managed to have fun while helping at the same time. My favorite was borrowing Aubree's shoes, because I love shoes.
 We did lots of waving and cheering for everyone.
 I got to draw a name of someone to win one the prizes.
 We even met a local radio personality, Brian.
