This is Your Time- Poem


This is Your Time


This is your time to shine
The time for you to set a goal
Don't worry about trivial things
That are not in your control.


Concentrate on what you can do
To reach that goal you've set
To see your dreams come true
And come out being an ever better you!

Be active in home and community
And be a person that people know
Will shine in this world of ours
Even after the end of the show.

Let your inner beauty shine through
And be kind and loving in all you do
Reach for that dream and believe in your self
And you just might see that dream come true!

Chelsey Ingersoll, a graduating senior from Mountain View High School, was crowned Miss Orem 2009-2010 at the annual scholarship pageant on Saturday night at the SCERA Center for the Arts in Orem.

As the new Miss Orem, Ingersoll receives $2,750 in scholarship money. She plans to attend Brigham Young University this fall, and to pursue a career as a pediatric cardiologist.

First runner-up in the competition was Alexis Hatch, a sophomore at BYU majoring in music therapy, who was awarded a $1,120 scholarship. Also named as attendants and scholarship recipients were Emily Jacobsen, Graceann Jacobson and Whitney Bunker.

In the talent competition, Ingersoll performed a sizzling tango/cha-cha dance number.

In response to an on-stage question about what has been her proudest accomplishment, Ingersoll responded, "Tonight, it was walking on stage in a swimsuit." She then added, "Waking up each day with a smile" regardless of circumstances.

Ingersoll also won one of several extra scholarships given -- the $200 TIFIE (Teaching Individuals and Families Independence through Enterprise) Award. The recognition was presented by local businessman Robert Workman, who established TIFIE as a nonprofit humanitarian organization in 2007.

A $500 community service award, given by Orem's mayor and City Council, went to Chelsea Dean. The $100 contestants' award -- voted on by the pageant participants -- was awarded to Haley Johnson. Ashleigh Dickerson received the $100 award from the pageant committee for her participation and attendance at pre-pageant workshops, and Alyson Sabin was given the $100 director's award for "most growth through the pageant experience."

Miss Orem 2008-2009, Krystal Millard, will represent the city in the Miss Utah pageant in June at the Capitol Theatre in Salt Lake City.
