About
With this Blog, I offer a glimpse into the process and goals of being a pageant contestant… Specifically, Being Miss Maumee Valley. I also take pride in providing a positive place to keep up with the Ohio pageant scene. Enjoy, feel free to ask questions and please leave comments!
About Me
- Name: Abby Bollenbacher
- Location: Holland, Ohio
Greetings! I am Abby Bollenbacher, Maumee Valley 2005. This past June I competed in the Miss Ohio Scholarship Pageant where I was a Top 10 Semifinalist. Miss Maumee Valley is my fifth title (meaning I’ve previously competed at Miss Ohio four times) and my last, due to age limits. When I give up my title in November I will no longer be eligible to compete in the Miss America system, but I plan to remain an active volunteer in anyway I can because I believe in the value of this organization. In six years of competing I matured tremendously as well as earning nearly thirteen thousand dollars to fund my education! In May I graduated from Bowling Green State University with a Communications degree, specializing in Theatre. My higher education career was turbulent and for that reason I advocate ways to improve this phase of life for others as my pageant platform. I have earned three National Championships in Forensics (speech, debate & competitive performance) and am available to speak on either my platform, or an array of other topics. I am also an accomplished vocalist; I also enjoy being an emcee and entertainer. Contact me for an appearance today at missmaumeevalley@yahoo.com.

Hey Abby! I don't know if you get Glamour Mag, but there is a really cute ad about the Miss America Pagent in there. It's like all the heads of all the winners collaged on the ad. Really artsy and cool to see all their expressions. Thought this might interest you!

They've done a great job with PR this year... hopefully the program returns to its glory days!
