Crowning Moment

Hello everyone! I am very excited to announce that on December 5, 2010 I was crowned Miss Hamden's Outstanding Teen 2011 at the Square Foot Theatre along with my three sister queens, Ashley Membrino, Danielle Trusch, and Alexa Farrell. I wanted to take the time to thank everyone who has constantly supported my journey throughout the Miss America Organization this past year. Your support in my endeavor means the world to me and I believe that each and every one of you has become a part of me in some way.

I am ready to make the most of this title and I hope to do a great job representing the Hamden area.  This year will consist of a wide range of appearances and it will help me continue to promote my issue of concern, Operation A.R.T.S.: Arts Rewarding Teen Success. I will have the opportunity to compete for my final time in Miss Connecticut's Outstanding Teen in June and I am happy to say that State preparation has already begun!

Please continue to follow my journey throughout the year on my blog. Also, please feel free to contact me as well at bsmail@chasemail.org.

Much love,
Brianna Leigh Smail
