Come Get Your Pancakes!

Today, I had an AMAZING time at the Coralville IHOP in support of Children's Miracle Network. The Miss America Organization and the Children's Miracle Network have a longstanding partnership. The share a commitment to raise awareness and funds for one another. Every local competition, each contestant must raise a required amount of money to support the Children's Miracle Network. What a great way to raise funds! Tonight, I had the great fortune to be in the company of Miss Burlington, Miss Greater Des Moines Outstanding Teen, and your Miss Iowa!

We walked around talking to customers about their pancake choice and how they can show their support to Children's Miracle Network! Guests were happy to talk and find out what we were doing there which is always fun.

One of my favorite conversations was when we were talking to an elderly man and he took out all of his photos from his front pocket and phone a picture of his grandson. He told me that if I gave him my phone number and name that he would have his grandson call me! It was so sweet. Aly, Sophia, Maddison, and I had a blast talking with the guests and taking pictures with the kiddos who were waiting for pancakes. I am so glad that I got to take part in IHOP's National Pancake Day as your Miss Muscatine!

Stay safe and warm!

XOXO
