Johna has been an excellent representative for us all year, promoting our organization with intelligence, grace, and style. She has also diligently promoted her platform of eliminating literacy every week since she was crowned last June. In my opinion, the white gown is quite lovely and reveals no skin other than her arms. The beautiful red gown was appropriate for the Robeson County Dancing With the Stars event for which her attendance was requested, an event where children were not in attendance. We are very grateful for our wardrobe sponsors who supply Miss North Carolina with appearance gowns during her entire reign. The entire Miss North Carolina Organization is very proud of Johna and the work she has diligently performed this year as she has partnered with organizations such as Hooked on Phonics to spread her love of reading to school children all across our state. It is our hope that our wonderful North Carolinians will also support Johna in her statewide efforts to eliminate literacy."
