Miss Massachusetts Outstanding Teen 2010!

Hi everyone!

My name is Kendall, and on May 23rd, I was crowned Miss Massachusetts Outstanding Teen 2010! Throughout the day, I had such a great time getting to know all the girls competing. The day flew by, and then it was time to compete! Before I knew it, I was announced as the new titleholder. I don't think I've ever been so excited in my life! All I could think about was all of the amazing opportunities I had ahead of me -- a year to be a representative and a role model for young people across the state while promoting my platform The Kindness Campaign, dozens of appearances, and the opportunity to compete for Miss America's Outstanding Teen! Because of all the excitement that night, I only got 3 hours of sleep!

Thank you so much to my family and friends and everyone who has supported me while I was preparing for Miss MA Outstanding Teen. It means the world to me! Thank you to Donna, Val, Holly, Ralph, and Alie for all of your hard work putting together the pageant! And, congratulations to Brianna Bostick, MMOT '09 on such a great year. I certainly have big shoes to fill!

My first several weeks as Miss Massachusetts Outstanding Teen flew by. They were full of meetings and emails back and forth with my State Committee, filling out piles of paperwork for Miss America's Outstanding Teen, selecting my MAOT Talent Song, my official photo shoot (Thank you to Imagemakers Photographic Artists for the photos and DRE Designs for the jewelry!!), booking appearances, as well as finishing up my Junior year! It's a good thing I love being busy!

Love,
Kendall
