Dagot’éé everyone

It’s officially 10 more days until the pageant. I wanted to give back to my community and have one last event. On October 26th 2026, we did a drive-by Halloween truck-or-treat for the children and families.

This event meant a lot to me, as it's going to be my last hosted event. Our theme was Hocus Pocus, and I wanted to get back to my community and thank them for letting me represent you as Miss San Carlos 25-26. I witnessed all the young kids come out with their parents driving by in their costumes. Showed me all the values of the community and how much the Tribe meant to me. All the inspirational and encouraging words the parents gave me mean so much to me; words couldn’t describe how my heart felt during this entire event!! We had over 700 candy bags; we also gave the kids who were dressed up in they're costume a Halloween bag or bucket with candy & other goods and we had a lot of cars full of kids show ( I wish I counted all the cars that came by haha). But I felt all the love for the community. Thank you to my newly crowned Jr Miss San Carlos Apache and newly crowned Miss San Carlos Middle School for coming out and helping me hand out the candy bags

But I had so much fun being Miss San Carlos Apache 25-26, learning every day and at events. Meeting new people. Hearing everyone's stories and talking about how closely related I am to everyone. My journey has taken me far to represent my community. I’m so grateful and blessed that I was able to be your 64th annual Miss San Carlos Apache 25-26.

Thank you so much!! God bless you!

September 12th 2026

I attended the Navajo Nation Parade and the Miss Navajo Nation Coronation.

This was my First time attending the Navajo Nation Fair. The Navajo Nation Community was so Welcoming and heartwarming, with so many stories, so thank you to the Navajo Nation Community for making this experience meaningful and memorable! When we got to the parade, it was such a beautiful sight to see everyone and kids lined up on both sides of the road waiting for the parade to start it was just amazing.

And thank you to Frank Armstrong Jr. and his family for letting Mom and me sit with them during the parade. We enjoyed the laughter and stories they shared with us; it made the experience so much better. Thank you to one of the daughters for gifting me one of her earrings!! As the parade started, we saw a lot of amazing floats and great leaders like Buu Nygren Navajo Nation President. Vice President Richelle Montoya, Arizona Governor Kate Hobbs, Mark Kelly, Jonathan Nez, Kris Mayes, and many more great amazing leaders!

We saw a lot of amazing beautiful royalty from all over the Navajo Nation, White Mountain royalty were there, representing the White Mountain Apache Tribe!! Thank you to Utah Tech Iso Ambassador For Gifting my two scrunchies!!

Later that afternoon, our Miss San Carlos Apache Veterans Powwow Princess and I attended the coronation of the New Miss Navajo Nation, the outgoing Miss Navajo Nation Camille Uentillie she did an outstanding job representing the Navajo Nation. She always represented with pride and honor for her people, she always wanted youth to learn the language and culture she was willing to help teach them the ways of the culture and language. She was there for people; she listened to them and heard their voices. She was there for her elders, and she wanted them to know she cared about them by listening to their stories and the knowledge they shared with her.

Congratulations to the Newly Crowned Miss Navajo Nation 2026-2027 Rochelle Francisco and for getting Best Butchering Skills and Best Essay. I know you’ll do an outstanding job always representing the Navajo Nation she as a busy schedule this year, but she’ll do amazing! Congratulations to Tonana Ben for being 1st runner-up for Miss Navajo Nation and getting a pin for Best traditional food, Best Interview. And congratulations JoAnni Begay for being 2nd runner-up and getting a pin for being Miss Congeniality. I know it was an emotional week for you young ladies, but you did an amazing job and you all deserve it. Wishing nothing but the best for the young ladies' future.

I had an amazing time at the Navajo Nation fair and parade. Thank you everybody for the safe travels there and back. It really means a lot to us!!

September 10th 2026

I attended the “Walk for Justice” for Dezirae Harney. Dezirae's life was taken too soon from her family and friends on June 15 2026, she would have been a Senior with all of her friends and classmates this year. This walk was an honor for her and to keep saying her name for justice. Gun violence should be put to a stop in all tribal reservations. This is one of the most painful and urgent struggles we face, and we cannot let this continue to take innocent lives or leave families broken with grief. Dezirae's family and friends are still hurting from this incident. The guest speakers were speaking, two of them were her closest friends. The others were her mom and dad and her grandmother. They’re all still grieving for Dezirae’s passing but doing these walks for her, seeing the community coming together brings them hope for her Justice, Her Father said this “This won’t bring my daughter back, it’ll bring her to justice” and yes, it will. What they’re doing is a stepping stone,

If you’ve been impacted by these issues I encourage you to keep fighting for the loved ones that you have lost to gun violence. To speak their names, to keep memories alive, and to be a voice for those who no longer can speak for themselves this is what the Harney Family is doing, they’re standing up to the gun violence and violence that’s happening within our community. As a community, we need to come together and stand together to stop the violence and spread this awareness, support one another, and work towards a future where our People are safer, because we’re stronger together!

September 5th, 2026

I attended the White Mountain Apache 99th annual parade with our Vice Chairman, Tao Etpison, and staff.

Beforehand I would like to thank Vice Chairman Tao Etpison for allowing me to be a part of his float. And everyone for the safe travels there and back.

For this being my second-to-last parade it was very special to me, our other San Carlos Royalties we’re also there as well representing our beautiful San Carlos Tribe, during this period I got a chance to greet everybody saying hi to everyone, I’m so thankful for the welcoming gifts that I have received during this parade. Seeing all of you at the parade spending time with your family and friends brought my heart joy. It made this moment special and memorable seeing all the happy faces and everybody smiling made me so happy. Thank you, but afterwards I got to attend the night performance where we got to see Filipino traditional dances, and from The Gila River Indian community performing their traditional basket dance, followed by Priya Simpson singing a traditional songs, a performance of the Danza Azteca/Concheros, and Apache Warriors performing the warrior dance, White Mountain Fair and Rodeo, for the opportunity to be a part of the 99th Annual White Mountain Fair and Rodeo. And thank you to White Mountain community for making this the most memorable and amazing weekend!!

Dagot’éé everyone,

From the 9th to the 13th, I had the opportunity to attend this year's Unity Conference in Oklahoma City with the San Carlos Youth Council.

This was my first time attending Unity. I had a great experience and opportunity. We left on Thursday, the 9th, at 3am and arrived in Oklahoma City at 11pm. As I've spent time there, I’ve met many new people, including tribal royalty, and made many new friends from different tribes. And hearing all the accomplishments that their tribal Youth council did for their tribes. As I listened about other tribes' issues that they’re facing on their reservation, and encouraging solutions. The morning assemblies consist of different guest speakers, especially Lindy Waters III, who talked about how he became an NBA player and how he never stopped his traditions and how he kept it with him and told the youth to stay consistent and be proactive and never forget where you come from because that’s who you are.

And attending workshops that could give us an idea of what we want to do in life and help with our emotions, and doing all these fun activities and fun icebreakers that get you out of your shell. And seeing talent night was really fun, seeing everybody perform and do a lot of singing and dancing, I had so much fun. The Culture Night was a nice opportunity to learn new culture, was really awesome. A group from Taiwan performed traditional dance and songs; a Powwow dancer, Zuni, performed a butterfly dance; a hoop dancer, White Mountain, performed the Rainbow dance; and Jr. Miss White Mountain sang the Geronimo song. So this was a really fun experience. It really brought a lot of tribes together and showing us of how much of a family we are even though we’re from different tribes that we all connect in different ways so I really encourage all of you to let your kids join into the Youth council advisor new things and a lot of in a new environment but thank you all for wishing theYouth council member and advisor and I, a safe travels there and back and thank you!

Dagot’ee everyone

This past weekend, I went to the Mescalero reservation to attend their 4th of July parade. It was such a great parade. I had a chance to meet a lot of new people. Some of our royalty got to attend this parade as well: Miss San Carlos Apache College, Lil Miss Rodeo, Lil Bit Rodeo, the San Carlos Apache Veterans Association, and Peridot District Councilman John Bush. This is my first time being on the Mescalero Reservation and attending their parade. It was a very great experience. Everybody was so welcoming; we got to see if they’re coming of age ceremony feast out of respect for the family and the tribe. We didn’t take pictures, but I’ll tell you that this was so beautiful to see for the first time. But later that evening, we went to see fireworks at the Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort and Casino. It was one of the greatest fireworks shows I’ve seen. Thank you to everyone for the safe travels, there and back. Thank you for everyone who help sponsor me to represent the San Carlos Tribe.
