absent - gearing up for nationals
so i have been absent in my postings because Sheridan is away at camp. It has been a wild summer.
After sheridan won coed, she then finished up at the Improv Playhouse Camp production of Grease where she played Rizzo, in a jr. high version of the production. Then she went away to her overnight camp for 3 weeks, with a little interruption of me picking her up to take her to an American Girl Doll shoot and then back to camp again. She finishes camp this week and then back to gearing up for pageants.
The things we are working on now is fundraising to go to nationals for American Coed. There is so much involved, so much to do. We have to fundraise and sell two full ad pages at $600 each. I have sold one page and 1/4 of the 2nd page.
We are selling glowsticks to cover the costs of the hotel and gain sponsors and gain donations to turnaround and sell to pay for the costs of the optionals.
We need to work to cover costs for food/rental car and gas. We arent even working on the cost of any new clothing. There are two dance outfits to buy too though.
Lots to work for.
We have a bake sale at a post office, selling glowsticks and light up fans. We will see if we can come up with more ideas. We are also selling candy bars at my job to raise money.
This is a lot of work. Sheridan needs to come up with some events too and is also busy in her other systems doing events too. All in all, it is august 2 and there is so much yet to do. UGH!!
come check out our updates later!

Behind in Posting - American Coed, She Won
So i am very behind in posting, this seems to happen once in awhile. Sheridan Hurtig won her division in Illinois American Coed 2010 on June 20, 2010. Sheridan now holds the title of Miss Pre-Teen IL American Coed 2010. She also won in the optionals of Speech, Community Service and Actress. She took first runner up in Modeling and Actress. I thought she was amazing. I was so proud.
Now we have to do a lot of fundraising to get her to go to nationals in Orlando, FL at Thanksgiving. If you know anyone who can donate, feel free to send them our way.
We are selling ads in our national ad book at $60 for a business card size; $150 for a 1/4 page; $300 for a 1/2 page and $600 for a whole page. We have to sell two pages, plus we need to fundraise to cover the cost of optionals and the cost of the hotel, airfare, food, rental car, etc. It is a tough road be we have already started.
i will keep you posted.

Miss IL Coed pageant
Tonight was the first night of Miss IL Coed.
The power went out at about 5 - 6 or longer. That kind of threw things off. The talent competition was supposed to start at 7 but we ended up starting at 630.
There are a lot of girls competing this year.
In Sheridan's pre-teen division there are 15 girls. I would say there are 5 that will be real competitors for her!!
She was great at talent tonight. I think she either won or got 1st runner up, but I may be biased. There were two other singers besides Sheridan. One sang acapela and was pretty good. One sang a very difficult song that is sung by Alfaba in Wicked... hard for a professional adult. Her other main competition was the girl who did baton twirling. The music selected was great and she did pretty well but she did drop a baton once... not sure how much it hurt her score. She did get the audience clapping with the music.
tomorrow is a big day with Intro and Interview at 1130am; Actress at 1; Speech at 2; Modeling at 3 and formalwear at 530.
We are staying at the Hyatt Rosemont tomorrow night because we are sharing a room with Connie and Brittany L. That is great because then we can stay and it only costs $65 (1/2 price)
Crossing my fingers for Sheridan. Our realistic goal for the pageant is top 5 however I would love her to win of course.
Sunday is opening number rehearsal from 8-9am and then time to get ready for crowning and awards ceremony at 11. Come join us if you want.

Libertyville Township Ground Breaking Ceremony for Food pantry
This past Tuesday we did a ground breaking ceremony for the Libertyville Township Food pantry. Over the past two years we have budgeted about 450K to allow a new pantry to be built. We service about 250-270 families per month.
Currently we are working out of a dilapidated garage that is falling apart and not what I would say is sanitary or up to code. All the non perishable food has been moved into the conference room, in half of it, hidden by a collapsable wall...
We had the ground breaking ceremony with our builders, Pepper Construction and Architects.
It was a good feeling to know we are doing something worthwhile for people in need. This last building will be attached to the main township offic building and will complete the campus.

Pearls of Paradise Pageant, aka the Puppy pageant
Last weekend, Saturday, Sheridan competed in the Pearls of Paradise pageant. She was competing for the high point supreme, the highest crown where she could win $150 or a mini supreme where she wins $50 plus she was also competing for the pomeranian puppy. To win the pomeranian you had to have the highest beauty score.
She did not win it.
For the Supreme you needed the highest overall score of Beauty and 4 optionals. Sheridan competed in 5 of the 6 optionals, photo, comp card, talent, swimsuit, and outfit of choice.
She won. All girls get a crown and sash and a neat gift from the director. Sheridan also won the $150.
Libertyville Township Meeting
Today we had our Libertyville Township meeting. Supervisor O'Connor was there as well as all 4 trustees, including myself, our Clerk Anne Hansen and our Highway Commissioner Bill Morgan were all present as well as a few from office staff.
The meeting was at 7pm today and was very brief. We talked about the upcoming ground breaking for the new food pantry to occur 4pm Tuesday the 15th of June at our main location 359 Merrill Court, Libertyville, IL 60048. Join us for this momentous occasion.
On the 19th of June, a Saturday, at 10 am, is the Libertyville parade and the township will have a float. The them is Rock this town and we will have the Buckley Rd. Band on our float and celebrate Rockin with Libertyville Township Open Space.
This year I can't be there b/c we have a pageant to attend.
Last year we won the trophy for best float. Can we make it two years in a row?
There is a concern about heavy mosquitos this year and we are considering spraying in the unincorporated Libertyville Township areas, in the corporated areas the town sprays those areas.
Join us at our next board meeting on June 24th at 7pm.
