Mr. EHS
March 2, 2011
In talking with several former Miss Missouri titleholders they all agreed that one of the most fun memories of the year was emceeing the Mr. EHS Pageant and I would definitely have to agree with them! This event is quite a tradition at Eureka High School. Each year the event is sponsored by the Student Council. Junior and Senior boys are chosen to represent each club and sport by the teachers and staff. This year there were twenty four young men vying for the title. They all competed in four categories of club wear, talent, karaoke, and formal wear. Then the top six were named and they went on to compete in the final onstage question.
The students told me that this is by far one of the most popular events at the school. As soon as the tickets go on sale, students have to run to get in line and buy the tickets, it sells out within five minutes! All proceeds from ticket and raffle sales at the event goes to charity. This year, the Make-A-Wish Foundation was chosen as the recipient of the $5,000 to $6,000 raised. Make-A-Wish is a national organization that grants wishes to children with life-threatening medical illnesses.
The contestants were having fun and interacted with me throughout the show. I don’t think I ever stopped laughing! Congratulations to Mr. National Honors Society, Brock Scoville who is the new Mr. EHS! Thanks for inviting me to be a part of such a neat event that has been helping to raise money for various charities in the community for over 15 years!
