The daughter of a friend of mine has qualified for the Miss Teen Saskatchewan pageant. Along with the desperate search for the perfect dress, the right shoes and the most flattering swimsuit, is the daunting task of fund-raising. Entering the Miss Teen Saskatchewan pageant is not without cost and contestants do a great deal of fundraising. We decided to host a fund-raising steak supper. Melissa and her mom Nicole called their family members, friends, and co-workers in their effort to sell tickets to the supper. We were expecting around sixty people. As the day drew closer, we began to suspect we would have more than sixty. Several of Nicole’s friends volunteered to help and soon we had over 100 tickets sold! Melissa is a fourteen-year-old girl with beauty and grace. What makes her beauty even more appealing is that she is very down-to-earth and friendly. How wonderful for her that so many people showed up to show their support. Hopefully this support will give her the extra confidence to win the pageant. Having friends you can count on . . . it’s a good thing!
