Queen For A Day - UPDATE

I spoke with Jenna yesterday & it's official! I'm the Director of Queen For A Day in both the Los Angeles & Orange County Chapters! I will have a Co-Director, maybe, and I'm just so excited! I am waiting for the official paperwork to sign, and then I'm off! I have so many ideas that I want to do & make a positive experience for all involved.

If anyone in the Los Angeles & Orange Counties would like to volunteer or donate, please contact me at btwilinski@gmail.com with your name & number!
