Miss Iowa Jr. Pre-Teen Charlotte Lange Says Farewell

Whoa! Was this last year a dream? Since my crowning, I have been supported by family and friends including my amazing sister queens! 

Throughout my year, I volunteered at the Animal Rescue League, Meals from the Heartland, Ronald McDonald House, Blank Children's Hospital and a NAM pageant training session!

I had an absolute blast at nationals!  I made so many friends during rehearsals, competition, a day at Disneyland and the Hollywood tour not to mention I won the neon costume contest and most ticket sales for National Finals!

First I'd like to thank the NAM staff especially Breanne and Ryan! You are the best directors!!  I also want to thank my family! Camden- you are the best brother ever! You rock! I love you.Aunt Maddie- you are the best supporter ever! You have always been there for me! You've done my hair and pageant prepped me. You da bomb! I love you!!!!Grandparents- you are the best fan club ever! Thanks for supporting me in all that I do with pageants!  I love you!

Mom and Dad- thanks for always allowing me to follow my dreams and pay for my stuff! Dad, thanks for being the best escort ever! I love you! Mommy, thanks for always being there and pushing me to do my best! I love you!

Finally, I want to thank my sister queens for such an awesome year!  Madeline- I'm so proud of you Lil Miss National Runway Model! I love you through thick and thin no matter what! Mya- you rock! I loved helping at the pageant prep session with you! I hope we always stay in touch!  Kristen, Molli and Sarah- you guys are awesome! I'm so glad I had the opportunity to share my year with you!  Zyrianna- from the moment we had to share a chair we were BFFs! My love for you can't be put into words! You are the sister I never had! I love you!

And to my successor, your year will go by in a blink of an eye so cherish every moment!

For the last time, I am your National American Miss Iowa Jr. Pre-Teen Charlotte Lange, but you can call me Chuck !!!! :)
