My year as your 2015 National American Miss Oregon Pre-teen has been amazing! When my name was called as the new Preteen Queen I was in shock and full of excitment for my year ahead. I was greatly blessed that all of my hard work and dedication paid off! As Miss Oregon Preteen, I was able to spread my platform of anti-bullying and help young girls continue to grow confidence. I represented my great state of Oregon at the national pageant in Anaheim, California were I captured the 2015-2016 National American Miss Pre-teen title as well as the National Pre-teen Spokesmodel title! This year I have volunteered at many different places such as: Ronald McDonald House, cooking dinner for families; cleaning books at the Children's Book Bank; helping at the Labor Day picnic; speaking in multiple schools with Continue to Find Kindness about anti-bullying and how to revolutionize kindness; feeding and clothing those less fortunate, and SO much more!To the girls competing have fun and make the most of your weekend. Take lots of cute pictures to keep your memories alive! National American Miss is about growing confidence so make sure the trophies your taking home are new friends and greater self confidence! Good luck and remember Be Brave and Be Yourself!Love,Shayla Montgomery2015 Miss Oregon Preteen2015-2016 National American Miss Spokesmodel Pre-teen2015-2016 National American Miss Pre-teen
