WOW what a night! For the past few weeks I introduced you to 13 wonderful young ladies who were participating in the Menomonee Falls 2014 Distinguished Young Woman Scholarship Program sponsored by the Optimist Club of Menomonee Falls. Well on Saturday, February 16th, Katie Eisenhauer was chosen as Menomonee Falls 2014 Distinguished Young Woman. Katie will compete along with approximately 19 other young ladies representating their communities from around Wisconsin at the State Distinguished Young Woman Program on Saturday, August 3rd at the South Milwaukee Performing Arts Center to become Wisconsin's Distinguished Young Woman. The State winner then competes in the National Program held in Mobile, Alabama.
In addition to Katie winning the major title she also won the individual categories of Interview, Self-Expression, Talent and Be Your Best Self Essay winner.
