— Callie, Wee Miss Great Lakes

✨ Get to Know Callie! ✨

Callie loves all things pageants—the stage, pretty dresses, hair, and makeup! 👑💄✨

But when she’s not glamming up, she also loves searching for tiny creatures outside. She absolutely loves little critters like turtles, baby spiders, stink bugs, and even worms! 🐢🕷️🐛

Whether she’s sparkling under the stage lights or exploring the backyard, Callie finds joy in every adventure. 💕

🍓 What a berry sweet day! 🍓

I had so much fun at the local Strawberry Festival today! I got to plant my very own strawberry plant, explore the community herb garden, and visit the barn where they had lots of old tools! 🌱❤️

Happy Earth Day! 🌎💚

I had so much fun attending a local Earth Day Expo! I got to pick out a sticker (I chose a moth 🦋), learn all about food waste, and even meet a local beekeeper who gave me a sample of honey—yum! 🍯🐝

It was such a fun day learning how we can all help take care of our beautiful planet. Let’s keep spreading kindness to the Earth every day! 🌱✨

This was my very first appearance in my crown and sash, and I had so much fun attending the groundbreaking for the new YMCA Regional Wellness Center! 🏗️✨
Everyone loved having a princess there, and I felt so honored to meet so many sweet people! 💕👑

They also had the MOST delicious cookies! 🍪😋

I even got to take a picture with the Executive Director for the Tri-State YMCA, which made it extra special! 💫
