"Every time I talk to someone from RPM it's like my energy to compete is completely renewed. This is something that I want for myself and I push myself for every day, so it really helps to find support in all of you as well. I really like the Take a Chance on Me fundraising idea. I got some new Jonathan Carter pictures a few weeks ago that I know will be great to use in it. I am so excited about this opportuntity (NC Teen USA was my very first pageant, and ever since I have been completely hooked.)
Thanks so much for running such an esteemed production every year and keeping it traditional."

"Competing in the Miss NC USA Pagaent was an amazing experience! I got to know so many great girls who I am now friends with. The interview part of the pageant was wonderful; it really helped me to start thinking on my toes and to think about where I stand on a lot of issues in today's society. Just being on the stage has helped me with my confidence and has helped me to carry myself better on a daily basis. I love the staff and the people who put on the pageant they are so helpful and friendly! I highly recommend this pageant to any young women."
