Miss SCV Scholarship Program®

Little Miss SCV 2009

Collette Heydari

In her own words:

I am proud to be a part of Miss SCV Scholarship Program for a second time. I was crowned as Little Miss Saugus in 2007. I spent many hours volunteering in my community for organizations such as Special Olympics, 4th of July Parade, Hunger Defense and many more. The experience was so rewarding that I decided to run again and in May of 2009 I won the Regional Title of Little Miss Santa Clarity Valley. What an honor!

As a Regional Queen I felt that I had a lot more responsibilities not only towards my community, but also towards my pageant sisters, especially the Little Miss Princesses. We had countless hours working in different programs including many new business grand openings, Summer Jazz Festival, 4th of July Parade and many community fundraisers. One of my most memorable events was the Ivy Awards, where I was the Trophy & Awards girl. I felt like I was a celebrity. The most rewarding event was the Rescue on the Runway Event, where with my other pageant sisters we participated in a fundraising fashion show where the proceeds of which was used to rescue dogs and cats from the kill shelters.

There are so many people I wish to thank for making my year so memorable. Most important is

Ms. Mardi, who opened a door and gave me the opportunity to make a difference in my community. She is truly an inspiration to so many young girls and spends countless hours helping us with life skills.

It was such a privilege to have the title of Little Miss SCV for this year and I look forward to continuing to be involved with the Santa Clarity Valley community for many years to come.
