Holmen Courier Misprint

The Holmen Courier, and it’s website, incorrectly states that the 25th annual Miss Holmen pageant is Saturday night - NO! It is TONIGHT! We hope to see everyone at the show and “good luck” to all the contestants!

Miss Wisconsin Week 2007

Kim — Tue, 03 Jul 2007 03:41:20 +0000

We are back from Miss Wisconsin week in Oshkosh! Katherine did a great job representing our community of Holmen! I wish you all could have heard her perform her talent selection, an opera piece entitled “Art Is Calling For Me.” It was amazing! We are so proud of her and all she’s accomplished this year. Not only did she work hard to prepare for Miss Wisconsin, but she also worked hard academically as a freshman at Viterbo University. She was able to juggle everything very well and even made the Dean’s List.

We are also very proud of all of our local area contestants! Congratulations to Beth Bruzek for being a top five finalist and to Abby Ryan and Kristina Smaby for making the top ten! Great job, ladies!

This week, on Thursday, we will be starting rehearsals for the 2007 Miss Holmen Pageant. Katherine will be busy preparing for the show and assisting the contestants with all phases of competition. Our show will be held on August 10th at the Holmen High School auditorium. Look for more details to come!
