Meet and Greet Miss University Place Ashley Jackson

Tuesday,
August 13, 3:30 – 5:00 p.m. community members and businesses are invited to
attend a very special reception, a “Meet and Greet” event at Bridgeport Place
to support our reigning royalty Ashley Jackson, Miss University Place. 

Meet Ashley and her mother Roxanne, who are
residents of UP.  University Place City
Council Member Javier Figueroa has been so impressed by Ms. Jackson that he
wanted to step up and support her by hosting a “Meet and Greet” reception at
Bridgeport Place and summertime refreshments will be served. 

Ashley will be returning to complete her
college degree in Salisbury, North Carolina later this month. She has served as
an intern at the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts, in Tacoma, this
summer.  She is an altogether lovely
person:  smart, thoughtful, gracious, talented,
and with remarkable poise and people skills. 
She’s already a winner. 

Everyone
is welcome to attend and encouraged to donate to help Ashley cover her expenses
and move forward in the next round of the competition.  The statewide pageant competition for Miss
Washington will be held in Seattle during October; Ashley will return from
North Carolina for the competition. 

RSVP
to Javier Figueroa at 253.226.3927 so we can plan for enough refreshments for
the crowd. 

Bridgeport Place is located
at 5250 Bridgeport Way West, University Place, WA  98467.
