UMaine�s Shannon Folsom Crowned Miss Collegiate America 2011

San Antonio Texas/Saco Maine: January 13, 2011Shannon Rae Folsom, 20, a UMaine Honor�s College sophomore and dean's list student was crowned MISS COLLEGIATE AMERICA 2011 on Saturday, January 8 at the Scottish Rite Museum in San Antonio Texas.

Ms. Folsom, who is studying kinesiology and pre-med, will receive a $10,000 college scholarship, plus a generous wardrobe and prizes totaling over $25,000 for her year of service traveling the nation promoting healthy lifestyles and the value of education.

Folsom, daughter of Ed and Lauren Folsom of Saco, is an accomplished actress and singer. She has performed in more than 20 plays and musicals, sings in three choruses, plays violin and has received many awards from baton-twirling competitions as a child.

Folsom is described by Miss Collegiate America Director Amanda Patterson and Miss Collegiate Maine state Director Deb Landry of Saco as a bright, articulate and dedicated community volunteer. "She just captivated the judges," Patterson commented.

The judges considered contestants' academic achievement, community service experience in a personal interview along with fashion and evening gown. The pageant does not have a swimsuit or talent component, according to Landry.

Folsom's extensive list of extracurricular activities includes volunteering for, mentoring and fundraising for Crossroads Youth Center in Saco, Project AWARE youth drug awareness project and Children's Miracle Network of Maine. She will be featured in a short film about childhood obesity and healthy living, based on her own experience. The movie is being produced by Crossroads, of which Landry is founder and president and directed by Karen True. Landry and Saco-area physician Christine Blake, the 2010 Mrs. Maine-America title-holder, coached Folsom in preparation for competition.

Folsom also will relinquish her Miss Collegiate Maine crown to pageant first runner-up Kristy Huff, also a University of Maine Dean's List student, from Burnham, Maine majoring in psychology.

A top 10 student at her high school, Thornton Academy, she was a member of the National Honor Society. Folsom was the recipient of 15 undergraduate awards for academic achievement, the St. Lawrence University Award for Community Commitment and the recipient of the Jeff Christenbury Award for Outstanding Community Service.

In addition to her studies at UMaine, Folsom emphasizes her commitment to working with communities and youth to promote healthy lifestyle choices to protect children from obesity and type 2 diabetes along with social awareness issues such as bullying prevention and self esteem.

Newly crowned Miss Maine USA 2011 Resigns
It is with much sadness that we announce the resignation of Emily Johnson, Miss Maine USA 2011. After careful thought and consideration, Emily made the decision to relinquish her title based on a personal family matter. Emily has done a great job representing Maine thus far, and we wish her much luck in the future. Emily will be replaced by the 1st runner-up and former Miss Maine Teen USA, 26-year-old Ashley Lynn Marble. Ashley will quickly assume the role of Miss Maine USA 2011 and will make her first appearance this coming Monday at the Maine Special Olympics Winter Games. Ashley will represent Maine at the 60th annual MISS USA� Competition which is to air on NBC. The date and location for the pageant has not yet been announced.

I had never heard this before. Opinions, please!!!

Date Posted: 07:04:35 07/07/10 Wed

Taupe shoes are a necessity in interview, and they should be closed toed. Shoes that match the suit (for example black shoes with a black suit) are not acceptable. The judge's eyes should focus on the contestant's face and not drift to peek at trendy shoes.
