The Miss Yucca Valley Pageant, sponsored by the Yucca Valley Rotary Club, will be this Saturday evening at 6:00 p.m. at the Joshua Springs Thunderdome. Today Z107.7 reporter David Knutson introduces you to contestant Shelby Clow…
Who is the prominent woman you interviewed, and what did you learn from her?
My prominent woman is Kim Lay and she has taught me life skills. She taught me how to overcome any situation and how to be humble when I am doing it. Her life story has shown me that I should not take anything for granted, I should spend the time I have doing things I enjoy and helping others. She is such an amazing woman and I look up to her greatly. One day I would like to be like her and have a career I can enjoy as much as she enjoys hers.
What have you learned from your experienced with Miss Yucca Valley?
From Miss Yucca Valley I have learned to be mature and intelligent. They showed me thinking on my feet is important and it has helped me to prepare for situations where I will need to think of a solution very quickly. I have also learned how to do well in an interview. Before this I had no idea what to do, how to dress or how I should answer questions but this has shown me what to do for all of those situations. From the book we read, I have learned important skills that will help me for the future and it really me helped to prioritize my life and schedule better.
Any final words?
This experience has really prepared me for the real world and without it I would be lost on many things. I enjoyed hanging out with these girls and hope to have close relationships with them in the future. Everyone involved is very friendly and help to prepare you for pageant night. Without their support I would have never made it this far. I’m extremely shy, but I have discovered that it is so incredible and I have really enjoyed myself.
