Today at 3pm is the Miss Round Lake Area beauty pageant and is at the Round Lake High School. The girls compete for three crowns that of "Miss Round Lake Area", "Junior Miss Round Lake Area" and "Little Miss Round Lake Area". These winner then go on to compete at the Lake County Fair for the title of Lake County Queen, and then on to the state fair. Last year Joanna Ptasinski (picture on the left) who won the Round Lake title won the Lake County title as well as "Junior Miss Round Lake Area." Karolina Ptasinski (picture on the right) won the title at the Fair as well as "Little Miss."
I always enjoy going to the pageant, its fun to see all the competitors. I get a kick out of when I am asked to escort the girls from the village onto the stage. I also get to do it at the Lake County Fair where its traditional for the Mayors of the respective towns of the girls to do this. To tell the truth I get nervous for it because I don't want to screw things up for them! Long time Round Lake Area resident Angela Meeks is always involved in the pageant and does a great job with it.
