It's recess for a reason—what could be better?
EMILY "HAPPY CAMPER" BURRIS
"This summer, the competition is hotter than my car's black leather seats in the parking lot of Fred Meyer on a 95-degree afternoon. My competitors think they're showing up for a play date, but I'm ready for a Hay Day. As a former summer camp counselor, you ain't see nothin' yet. For Charity. For Glory. For long-awaited Bragging Rights. It's time to have a field day on these ladies!"
MIA "LAWN LEGEND" VILLANUEVA
"They might see me as the rookie on the festival grounds, but don't let the new-kid status fool you. I’m bringing my RBF to the WBF this year, and I've got my sights set straight on the reigning champ. Kelley might know how to predict the weather, but she won’t see this storm coming. Call me Mia but don't call me M.I.A. - this rookie is about to sweep the backyard!"
KELLEY "TRAIL BOSS" BAYERN
"'The People’s Champion” has returned. What more needs to be said? After years of glizzy guzzling glory, I'm taking my talents to the backyard. The competition may look different this year, but my goal remains the same: victory."
EMMA "S'MORE WINS" JEROME
“Champions aren’t born, they're ‘bread’. I learned the hard and public way last year my bark is bigger than my bite. But my spirit is alight and I am ready to flex my strongest muscle . To quote Picturequotes.com 'The most dangerous people are those with nothing to lose.' Everything is coming up Emma this year!"
