Hi everyone my name is McKlaine Bracewell, and I am honored to say that I am your new Junior Miss Lake County 2024.

I am 14 years old and a incoming freshman at Warren Community High School.  I am a part of the Warren JV Poms team and was in the National Junior Honor Society at my middle school.

Some things I enjoy outside of school are bike riding, baking, listening to music, and especially dancing!  Every year my dance studio performs the Magic of the Nutcracker ballet at Genesee Theater which I have dancedin for the past four years!

During my reign as queen I'm looking forward to expanding my platform throughout Lake county.  My platform focuses on making people smile and bringing happiness to their day by spreading positive, inspirational Post It notes in places all over town.

 I have been competing in pageants for eight years now and have been involved in the LCIS system since 2017 when I was crowned Little Miss Gurnee and then went on to win Little Miss Lake County!  I have held many titles and love volunteering, meeting new people and becoming closer with my queen sisters.  Pageants are such a big part of my life and I am so happy to continue my year after I give up my town crown.  

This year has so much to offer and I can't wait to take part in every opportunity that comes my way.  I am very grateful to be Junior Miss Lake County and can't wait for the upcoming year!
