SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO BE INVOLVED! Sr. Ms. Global United

Hi Everyone! 

I still have about 4 months left of my reign as Sr. Ms. Global United and can't wait to go out strong with more exciting involvement in community events.  It has been a fun few months being involved in fundraising, volunteering and being in the public eye.  It really is amazing how much attention a sash and crown brings.  I'm so happy to have had the opportunity to use my title to bring more awareness to children's cancer and suicide prevention.  As I have been healing from the grief of losing my son, I am realizing that I am a suicide survivor and that I can soon begin helping other suicide survivors.  A bittersweet opportunity, but very much needed.

Since my last post I have been involved in many numerous activities.  I have posted my event pictures on my facebook page in an album entitled Sr. Global United Happenings.  When you don't have a thing to do, check out my album.  I now have my own webpage too...so please check out my passion to help the hurting at www.sherrywestland.com  If you like my website, please click on the like button!

I have had the opportunity to judge several pageants with other women, some of whom I met for the very first time.  It's always wonderful to make new friends.  I have had such fun, especially judging my most recent pageant.  I just had to post this pix of "Baby Elvis" who won best Hollywood Theme in his age group.  The Midwest Dreams Pageant was held at the Sofitel Hotel in Bloomington, MN in February 2013.  The director was so organized and a pleasure to work with.  Is this baby cute, or what?

Anyway, life is good.  I have loved being a part of the Global United Pageant System and especially meeting & working with my wonderful pageant sisters and my director!  I'm not finished yet and have more activities to complete before my reign ends!  Can't wait to meet the new contestants in July!
