Miss Hopi Kerissa Ben made a stop on her way home from Phoenix to encourage Hopi runner Kellen Lomayestewa who is running in the Cocodona 250 Ultra Run in Arizona. Hopi are known for their distance runners and every runner carries prayers for strength, health and healing for the people and their families. Miss Hopi and Committee are in awe of Kellen’s strength and determination! Askwali Kellen! You are doing a great job! Stay hydrated, stay positive! We are proud of you and we will all be waiting for you at the finish line! Um Nahongvitotani!

The Miss Hopi Committee shares this message with our Hopi community, our tribal royalty family, and all our relatives and friends with care and respect. As of April 6, 2026, LaDonna Jacket no longer holds the title of Miss Hopi 2025–2026.

We offer our heartfelt appreciation to LaDonna and her family for the time, dedication, and service they have given to the Miss Hopi Committee and to our community. Their efforts are sincerely acknowledged and valued.

In keeping with the Miss Hopi Committee By-Laws, when the title becomes vacant, the First Attendant assumes the responsibilities of Miss Hopi for the remainder of the royalty year, or until the next Miss Hopi Pageant.

With this, we humbly and proudly recognize Kerissa Ben as Miss Hopi 2025–2026. We ask our community to join us in supporting her as she carries forward the responsibilities of this role.

Askwali.

Uma nahongvitani Chairman Keevama noq Vice- Chairman Kewanimptewa!

Askwali!
