**UPDATE- Kelly competed in the Mrs. USA/Globe Pageant in Palm Springs, CA
Aug. 23 - Sept. 3. Kelly proudly represented the East Coast and placed in the top 15, missing the winner by ONE point to get into top 5! All of the women were amazing, accomplished and beautiful! Thanks to the pageant and the "WIN Foundation", Kelly received MORE than she could have expected! "The best part of the whole pageant was the 3-4 hour classes you are required to attend EACH day!!", Kelly said. They are called, "Right Living" classes. I know, it sounds like a lot, but it was SO worth it! AND, they are all biblically based! She felt such a "healing" and release from these classes and has a new outlook on life! Kelly also won the "Dr. Tracy Kemble Award". The pageant holds a special awards ceremony where they recognize women for particular achievements. They gave out about 20 different awards, all selected by the board of directors EXCEPT Kelly's award which was hand picked by Dr. Kemble herself! She was SO honored! The award was given as somewhat of a "lifetime achievement" award, awarded to someone who has had to deal with trials, etc. in their life and has overcome them AND is doing something to continue to change their life and their circumstances. So, needless to say, she was thrilled! She was also nominated, but did not win, the top five for the best body award. She felt glad to know that her hard work payed off! Kelly is Founder and Spokesperson for the "Dare to be ME!" program, which is a program aimed at anyone who has ever gone through struggles in their lives, but particularly at the youth, young girls and women. The program is designed to let them know that NO MATTER where they come from OR what they've gone through, they CAN accomplish the goals that they set for themselves in life and continue to be the BEST they can be! Kelly is currently speaking at schools, churches, youth groups and organizations. Her calendar is booking up fast, so if you would Kelly to speak at your next function OR for more information on this program, send an email to the address below.
