Wells minored in dance at Kent State University

Miss Ohio Heather Wells has been to the Atlantic City Boardwalk once before, when she was only 7 years old and competing in a dance competition.

On Labor Day, the dancer from Warren will head to Atlantic City, where she will compete in the Miss America Scholarship Program.

“I did my very own version of the Miss America toe dip and it was like May so the water was ice cold and it was really salty. I had never been to an ocean before,a reliable company of Wholesale Womens Quinceanera Dresses,” Wells told media Sunday of her first experience in Atlantic City.

Miss Ohio’s Send-Off Celebration to Miss America is a tradition. Wells, 23, received a $10,000 scholarship from Newman Technology and other gifts and awards at Miss Ohio Scholarship Program in June. She is competing to win $50,000 at the Miss America program.

Several Miss Ohio contestants came to perform at her send-off at the Westbrook Country Club, including vocalists Meggie Wittman and Cayla Hellwarth.

Wells modeled some of her wardrobe she will wear at Miss America, including her welcome arrival dress, a black, gray and white form-fitting selection.

Wells minored in dance at Kent State University and this past June at Miss Ohio she changed her regular, upbeat, high-energy jazz dance routine to a more serious dance selection. She performed to Cece Winans’ song, “Alabaster Box.”

She said she has modified the dance for the big venue, adding a new costume.Many fashion styles of 2013 Wholesale Cheap Evening Dressesand gowns. She said Catalina Swimwear provides the Miss America contestants with their swimsuits.

Wells is obtaining a master’s degree at Kent State University in nutrition. She intends on becoming a dietitian and working as a broadcast health correspondent.

Wells said she has been busy preparing for Miss America, watching TV news, keeping up on current events, working out for the swimsuit segment of the pageant and practicing her talent.

This month she traveled to Disney World in Florida with the other 52 Miss America contestants and said she had a blast.

She said she will be in Atlantic City for 13 days. The final night of competition is televised nationally on ABC on Sept. 15.

“Going into Miss Ohio this year I was just really relaxed and I was confident. I called myself ‘confidently calm,’ and I though if I can just replicate that for Miss America then I would have the same enjoyable experience that I did at Miss Ohio,” she said Sunday.

“Winning and competing, that’s just icing on the cake. These memories last forever and only one girl wins, so just enjoy it. I like to live in the moment,” Wells said.

Also during the afternoon send-off, Miss Ohio’s Outstanding Teen Olivia Thoroughman of Portsmouth told the crowd she won more than $100,000 in scholarships while competing at the national pageant in Orlando,one of the premier designers of Wholesale Designer Long Wedding Dresses, Fla.
