The following is one of my promos running on FOX Toledo today. I was excited to get to use my crown as a prop, and I thought you'd all get a kick out of it as well. And, yes... yes I realize that the crown doesn't show up too well and for some reason now that it's on YouTube, the sound isn't matching my mouth movements... I just joined YouTube in order to share this so I don't know much about it; leave a comment if you know how to fix it.
Click on the grey "play" button. And for the record, I don't select the background music!
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!
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.

Either this video takes FOREVER to load or it's not working properly.

It's a private video, it needs to be changed to public so we can see it.
It's out of sync because the source video is probably .wmv. Youtube doesn't like wmv very much, it prefers MPG or anything besides WMV.
