Shhhhh....

I have a secret.... We have a new ATP Queen!!! :)

Saturday was the Princess Scholarship Program Interview & Volunteer Day! We had twenty-one bright, motivated young women at The Parade Studios vying for the the title America's Thanksgiving Parade® Queen!!

They toured the studio, learned about our year round activities, made colorful fleece blankets for the celebrities in the Parade (which post Parade will be donated to a local shelter), networked and interviewed with a panel of amazing judges (a former Miss Michigan America, an editor of a trendy Detroit magazine, a volunteer of the year award winner in metro Detroit, a huge Parade Co. sponsor and a NYC fashion week photographer)!!

The volunteer & interview experience are great stepping stones for the applicants and well worth the $25 application fee, not to mention the adorable t-shirts!! :) Right?!!

So for now, the judges sheets have been tallied, but the names are sealed in perfectly pink envelopes waiting to be revealed at the Princess Tea in a few weeks! I can't wait to meet the new Queen & Court and see another women experience a year of wonderful memories compliments of The Parade Company!!
