  4. I think you’ve accomplished a lot and are a good example of what a person with a disability is capable of. I think your founding of “Wheelchair and Friends” has offered a voice and support for others that have been isolated from mainstream society. I hope more support is offered to any disabled person, and I applaud your efforts for “Ms. Wheelchair America.”

I was Ms. WC Washington 2006 and I had a great year. I am sorry I won’t be there to meet all of you this year. Good luck in all you do and have a wonderful time at the Ms. Wheelchair America pageant. It was one of the best weeks of my life!

    Best of luck!

  18. Congratulations Elizabeth! It has been an honor working with you on various student projects at NSU.

    For those of you that don’t know Elizabeth… she is extremely proud of her Ms. Wheelchair Oklahoma title. She wore the sash to all the major functions and student presentations that we attended. Several important people had their pictures taken with her at the symposium in OKC.

    She will make an awesome Ms. Wheelchair America so make sure you vote for her!!

  20. My name is Angie Wilkerson: I was Ms. Wheelchair Virginia 2005-2006, second runner-up at Ms. Wheelchair America 2006 and also was awarded the People’s Choice Award. To all contestants, congratulations! As you get ready for MWA I know you are probably very excited and nervous at the same time. I wanted to share these pieces of wisdom based on my experiences and advice I received. You will be glad if you do all of your preparation before going to MWA (prepare & practice speeches, etc.), once you arrive pace yourself- don’t wear yourself out- get your rest and eat well- take care of yourself, enjoy every moment of the experience, take lots of pictures, try to meet and spend time with each contestant- you will be so inspired and enriched by doing so, you are all amazing and special…don’t compare yourself to anyone else- just be the best you that you can be, think of your fellow contestants not as competition but rather as members of a team with the same mission as you. May you all support, encourage, educate, and inspire one another. Have the time of your life and congratulations again to each of you on your achievements.
    God bless,
    Angie Wilkerson

  31. Hello Elizabeth,

    In five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes. How do you measure, a year in the life?
    This exact question from one of my favorite songs from the musical RENT began running through my head from the moment I recieved the title of Ms. Wheelchair Tennessee. How would I measure this year? And now I know I am measuring it in every lesson taught and learned and every friendship made.

    I am looking forward to a great week here at Nationals. Thank you for being a part of how I will measure this year.
