Why do you wish to be an Eagan Funfest Ambassador?
I wish to become an Eagan Funfest Ambassador because I feel I would be a great contributor to Eagan as well as surrounding cities. I am a responsible young adult who would be a great ambassador and look forward to every event this program has to offer.

Favorite Eagan Activities:
There are so many attractions in Eagan I could name, but has to be my favorite. A relaxing place to spend the day with my friends or family, where I can just let loose and have fun.

Candidate Information:
I dance at Heartbeat, taking everything from ballet to Hip-Hop. This is my 10th year and I have earned two awards. I had a job at TAGS gymnastics last summer and have taken lessons for 12 years. I have two dogs that I love spending time with. I enjoy volunteering with Minnesota Sheltie Rescue.
