Talking up Miss Indiana on WAOV Knox County Today

This week I had a chance to go on Knox County Today on WAOV Vincennes with Ed Ballinger to talk up the Miss Indiana program and share some highlights from my trip to the 2011 Miss Indiana Pageant in Zionsville.  Knox County Today is a regular radio program and I've been lucky enough to go on the air a few times with Ed to talk about Miss Indiana.

If you haven't already, take a look at my Memories from Miss Indiana series and the Countdown to Miss Indiana postings to see for yourself how much fun the 31 contestants had a the week long 2011 Miss Indiana Pageant.  I didn't get to talk about everything on the radio, but one really important thing to point out is that every one of the 31 contestants at the Miss Indiana pageant are local titleholders in the Miss America Organization.  This means they have one a local preliminary pageant and earned a local title.  Local titleholders get a crown and sash and make appearances throughout their year of service promoting the personal platforms and the Miss America program.

I had a blast at the 2011 Miss Indiana Pageant, so going on WAOV with Ed on Knox County Today was really the icing on the cake.  I hope that by sharing my experiences from Miss Indiana week more young women will enter the program at the local level.  Each year hundreds of young women compete for local titles in Indiana and we are always looking for new people to get involved.  If you want to get started as a contestant, or even as a volunteer, go to the Miss Indiana website for more information.
